The PTO is pleased to again provide school supplies for students for the 2016-17 school year. Most stationary and writing supplies (pencils, markers, binders, etc…) will be purchased by the PTO. Families may be asked to donate sanitary supplies (wipes, hand sanitizer, tissues, etc…) and any additional supplies your child may need. Teachers will provide students with a list of any additional supplies needed at the beginning of the school year. Thank you to all the families who support the PTO through donations and participation in fundraisers. Purchasing these supplies wouldn't be possible without your support!
