Dear 5th Grade Families,
We’re looking forward to meeting you and your child on the first day of school. Here is a supply list. Please try to have these supplies by September 21. Please do not feel that you must buy the linked items – the links are there to provide suggestions.
Note that for those children in the hybrid model, some of these supplies will be left at home and some will go back and forth between home and school. The all-remote children will keep everything at home.
For the hybrid children coming into school, we have noted below what to bring on the first day of school. Children will not share supplies and while they are not being used, supplies will be kept in children’s backpacks or on their tables. (Each child will have his or her own desk or table). We’ve included some links here, but if you prefer to purchase items elsewhere, that is fine.
For those coming into school, please bring a favorite book or two and a family photograph on the first day.
Thanks very much.
The 5th Grade Teachers
