This list covers all supplies needed for the year. Please do not send in all supplies (all paper, spare pencils, markers, etc.) for the year the first day of school. Extra supplies will need to fit in storage space outside of the classroom. If the supplies do not fit in the space provided, they will be sent back home the first week of school.

Students will be changing rooms this year, so they must be able to carry supplies from classroom to classroom. We are recommending that they have accordion files that will hold at least 6 subjects to carry papers for math, language arts, science, social studies, engineering and world languages.

We will send home a letter before school starts outlining the materials that should come to school on the first day.

Make sure you have additional supplies for homework at home (pencils, paper, scissors, etc.).

Backpack – rolling backpacks are a good idea, given the heavy books we use.

Donations:

Electric pencil sharpeners work much better than hand held sharpeners- but they wear out far too quickly. We could use one or two more for both classrooms for the upcoming year!

We can always use tissues, paper towels, wipes, pencils, pens, crayons, markers, lined writing paper, and white board markers. Old clean socks are needed as white board erasers in the classroom.

Thank you so much!
