CHANGES to the District Supply List – For Pre K, the larger diameter writing/drawing crayons, pencils, and markers are the best for their little hands. 1  16 count large diameter/jumbo crayons (they don’t break as easily). These can be hard to find, so the regular 24-count crayons are fine too. Here are some examples:

 Large diameter pencils with eraser. Ticonderoga “My First” brand is often available in the stores.

 Giant glue sticks (1.4 ounces or larger – the bigger ones last longer and don’t break off as easily as the smaller ones).

 Fiskars type blunt scissors with 1 small and 1 large hole for fingers. Please do not buy the spring-type scissors (the students find them very difficult to use) or scissors with holes that are the same size.

No: YES!

ADDITIONAL School Supply Items (not on the District List for Pre K):

 1 plastic school supply box (any color, 2 approx. 8 3/8” x 5 5/8”)

 1 box (8 or 10 count) washable broad line (large diameter) markers in classic colors.

 1 backpack (no wheels, please!) – large enough to accommodate our school folder (without folding or bending it) and a change of school clothing (see below),

 1 Change of clothing – a uniform top and bottom, socks and underwear. Accidents can happen…

For Practice/Homework: Keep a set of crayons, scissors & glue for your child to use at home.

We look forward to meeting you!

Sincerely,

Mrs. Dennison Mrs. Tandon
