This coming school year our teachers will again be buying school supplies for their classes for grades 1-7. This has worked very well for the teachers/students in the past. The cost for students is $45.00.
In order to help families and support the students with their learning, we felt this new system would be the best approach due to the increasing cost of living. This will cover all supplies for the year with the exception of indoor shoes. Our hope is that this will make things easier for families getting ready to go back to school in the fall and teachers will get the supplies they need for their individual classroom. What one teacher may need another may not require. This will also provide consistency for the students as everyone will have the same supplies.
We will be opening up School Cash Online for payment as of June 27th (Please find the directions and link below) with an end date of September 30th. Families can pay the fee online when they are able, or pay one student at a time, whichever works best for you.
If you feel this will be out of your reach at this time please do not hesitate to contact Mr. Gordon or Ms. D
