Is there a gadget out there (that is not a smartphone) that can do several vibrating alarms with messages throughout the day?

I'm on the hunt for a device that can do the following to help my kid stay on track throughout the school day. Something that can be set each morning with reminder alarms before each class in the school day reminding him what is needed for that class. It needs to:

1. Not be a phone. Phones are required to stay in lockers during the day and may not be taken to class.


2. Vibrate. The school does not allow for loud alarms during the school day.


3. Shows a short reminder message like "Turn in homework" or "Ask teacher about make up assignment" and "Practice Guitar"


4. Allows for 8-10 different alarms daily.

I thought a pebble or a smartwatch would be the perfect thing, but they seem to need the phone nearby to use notifications. Since his phone is in his locker, it won't work.

The closest thing I can find is the "Watchminder" and the "Vibralite" watches, but the reviews on each is that they are harder to set and use.

My next route is DIY, but before I re-invent the wheel I thought I would see if anyone knew of a device that might be the thing.
