School Supplies Needed for All Grades

 

At the beginning of the year each student will receive a complimentary agenda/student planner. Each student will learn to "get organized" using this planner. Teachers will provide students with assistance in using the planner properly. In addition to the planner, students will need the following supplies for their classes:

  • 1 READING folder with 2 pockets and prongs
  • 5 - One inch binders with soft vinyl, "poly" covers for core classes and advisement. Elective teachers may require an additional binder.
  • 2 packages of paper (300 sheet pack)
  • 1 package of colored pencils
  • 1 inexpensive calculator with % and square root function keys
  • 1 pocket dictionary (the smallest you can get)
  • 1 package of #2 pencils
  • 1 package of blue or black pens (4 in a pack)
  • 1 package of red pens (3 in a pack)
  • 1 paperback book for daily sustained silent reading
  • 1 plastic 12" ruler
  • 1 package of graph paper (1/4 inch squares-quad)
  • 5 packages of dividers ( 5 in a pack) (try to buy one pack of pocket dividers so that you can have a pocket in each notebook)
  • 1 book bag - as lightweight as possible; elevators are NOT available for student use.

The above list should get the student through the first semester. We suggest purchasing extra supplies at the beginning of the school year while they are on sale. Students are responsible for supplies each day and should notice when their supplies need to be replenished enough in advance so they don't "run out".

To keep book bag weight to a minimum, be sure you take only enough supplies to get you through the week. At the end of the week, look through your supplies and replenish what is needed.
