School Supplies
By July 1, this section will include a link to suggested, optional student supply lists that will be helpful to reference in preparation for the return to classes. It is not required that students come to school on the first day with all of these items. Families are encouraged to recycle materials from previous years. Those who are unable to bring their own suggested supplies will be provided them by the school. Every attempt is being made to reduce the sharing of materials. Please ensure that personal supplies are well labelled with the student name and grade. Students will be provided with a school-issued lock for both their regular and their PE locker. No personal locks are permitted.
