2025–2026 School Supply Lists

At the beginning of each school year, students are required to bring specific supplies to use in the classroom. These include basic items such as pencils, crayons, erasers, and markers. Please note that these supplies are provided by parents and are not supplied by the school.

The supply lists also include a section for optional items. While not mandatory, you may choose to provide them if you wish.

To ensure your child is ready for learning from day one, please make sure they come prepared during the first week of school. You can download the school supply list for your child’s grade by clicking the link below:
