What kind of school supplies should I be prepared to see on the list?
Anti-bacterial wipes
2 boxes Kleenex
100 sheet spiral bound notebook (wide ruled)
Fiskar scissors
2 boxes 24 pk Crayola crayons
#2 pencils
Crayola markers
Crayola water colors (8 color)
3 large glue sticks.
I would say that pencils, crayons, and glue sticks would be on the list for sure. I wouldn't go out and buy anything that I couldn't use at home without seeing the actual list though as they do vary from school to school. Have you checked the school's website to see if they have it posted there? Also the Walmarts around here usually have supply lists for the area schools at the store.
