Every year, the cost of classroom supplies increases while our classroom budget stays the same. Pencils, markers, construction paper, glue, and hand sanitizer, to list a few of the items, are all purchased using the classroom supply budget provided by the district and MESHSA. We are very grateful for these funds, but unfortunately they do not adequately cover the cost of all supplies needed throughout the year.
The following wish list items are the items most used during the school year:
- Gift cards for school supplies from Amazon, Target, Michael's Crafts, and Staples
- Hand sanitizer
- Band-aids
- Kleenex; plain Kleenex without lotion, aloe, etc
- Wipes to enable a quick clean of table tops etc.
- Glue Sticks
- Crayola pencils
Gift cards are the most useful as they enable me to buy what is needed when it is needed.
I will update this list as the year progresses, depending on the needs of the class.
I thank you in advance.
