Supply List

Dear Kindergarten Parents,

One of our aims in putting together the supply list is to support the growth of independence as students go about their day. Independence is important in Kindergarten for two main reasons:

1. It builds confidence in the students
2. It helps the class run more quickly and smoothly, which is to the benefit of the class as a whole

The school supply specifications are not suggestions, but requirements that are for the good of individual students and the class. While we are happy to help and support all of the youngest students in our school, it is for their good, as well as the efficiency of the class, to be precise in their school supplies during Kindergarten. 

Please note in particular the importance of adhering to the following specifications:

• Backpacks: should not be mini, but rather full-size; students need to be able to easily and independently put in a standard-size folder, along with all their other items.  
• Shoes: since most Kindergarten students cannot independently tie their own laces, please purchase shoes they can independently pull on and take off (including dress shoes, gym shoes, and any shoes or boots they wear to and from school) 
• Lunch Boxes & Tupperware: students need to be able to open and close their lunch and snack containers independently; before purchasing please have your child try, as some are tricky and designed for older students. 
• Water Bottle: these must be spill-proof and the lid should not need to be removed in order for the student to drink.

 Please also note that all school supplies and personal items are to be free of pop culture symbols.
