School Supplies List
Each academic year, students are asked to bring a small list of durable supplies to be kept at school. These are typically items that a student will bring home at the end of the year to be used again.
School Supplies Lists can be found under the “Resources” Section on MySchool App.
Please note that most school supplies (such as paper, pencils, notebooks, crayons, etc) are provided by the school and included in tuition.
