Pride With Purpose Preparing For The Future


School Supplies
 

 

We ask that families wait to buy school supplies until the first week of school. Teachers have different preferences for their students and, during the first week of school, they will give your child a list of necessary supplies. For your child to be prepared for the first day of school, please bring a backpack, notebook, paper, pens, and pencils (no markers please).

Two of our 6th grade teachers, Mrs. Jones and Mrs. Robe, have compiled a generic list of recommended supplies for 6th grade in order to give our incoming families a general idea of what is usually needed. Please note that this is a generic list. Each 6th grade team has variations. Composition notebooks can be substituted for spiral notebooks in most classes. You will receive a specific list at the beginning of the school year.

Generic List of Recommended Supplies

  • 3-ring notebook: no larger than 2".

  • Divider tabs

  • 2-pocket folders to keep homework assignments

  • Spiral college ruled notebooks:  about 5-6 spirals are needed (70 pages or more) 

  • Notebook paper - college ruled

  • Colored pencils:  package of 10-12

  • Pens:  blue and black

  • Erasers

  • Pencils:  Mechanical are OK however a backup of lead/wooden are also needed.

  • Calculator, small

  • Glue sticks:  several are needed throughout the year

  • Post-it notes:  small size

  • Book Covers          

What NOT to Bring to School

Please do not purchase the following items to be sent to school.

  • Large 3-ring binders are a nuisance, take up too much space, and are too heavy in the backpacks, especially zippered ones.

  • Markers of any kind.  NO Sharpies, Crayola, Highlighters, etc.
    (If markers are needed in class, they will be supplied at school.)

  • White-out:  liquid

  • Scissors
