Supply List  

    2009-2010

Having and carrying the correct supplies plays an important role in the life of a successful student. Organization is one of a middle schooler’s most common and difficult problems.  Please note that having the correct colors has been proven to be extremely helpful! Supplies will need to be replaced as they wear out and should be examined at the beginning of each new quarter.  Parents may wish to purchase extras at the beginning of the year when school supplies are plentiful and on sale.

Students will need the following items:

• A backpack to carry things home and back.  Backpacks and any other items with straps, such as purses, are not to be taken into classrooms.  Straps quickly become a safety  problem in crowded classrooms. Please do not purchase rolling backpacks as they do not fit in the lockers and students cannot bring them into the classroom.

• A very LARGE Trapper Keeper to hold all of a student's supplie

• Pencil Case, fabric, 3-holes with grommets

Students will find organization of their materials easier if their folders and spirals match for each class. Organization is often one of the greatest challenges students' face.  These will need to be replaced as they wear out. Parents may wish to purchase extras an the beginning of the year when school supplies are plentiful and on sale. Parents and students should plan on checking at least once a quarter.  Students will go through multiple folders and spirals per subject during the year.

In order to be successful, students must have the supplies needed for them to take part in class. Teachers do not have supplies for students. Having needed supplies is the individual student's responsibility. Parents can help by helping their students check their supplies regularly to see what needs to be replaced.
