10 sticks of glue
1 set of washable markers
1 large box of tissues

1 BOX of ziploc bags -boys=gallon size, girls=quart
1 pump anitbacterial soap
1 pair of headphones in sealed baggie with child's name on the bag
1 large backpack that child can open/close..large enough to hold a lunch, library books and folder

2 pencils
1 pair scissors
1 box crayola crayons 16-24 count
1 box crayola markers (classic colors)

Wasn't this crazy!! I remember getting the supplies last August. I couldn't believe it!! The schools here are amazing and you will be so impressed with all they do!
Wow save your pennies. Just wait till we send them all to college. I don't know about Ryan's tuition, but Jakes keeps going up each year! What a bummer.
Oh my! What does she need 10 glue sticks for?!
That is ridiculous! Seriously, 10 glue sticks! I can't believe they still use #2 pencils! I was sure everyone used mechanical pencils nowadays!
That's insane!! I don't think I had a list with that many things that I needed for college!!!
Is that pretty standard ... or is it a new teacher? Wow.
Utah pretty much provides everything ... the teachers send home a "wish list" every other month or so ... pretty much all those things are on it. :)
PS - I am STILL laughing about Mason's wonderful coloring job. What a funny post. Cutie.
That is pretty standard at least here in Chicago metro. Wait till 1st and 2nd grade and the list doubles! We spent several hundred dollars on school supplies for our two kids in school! It is all very crazy! The amount of taxes we pay are 2 or 3 times what it is in UT and we have to pay even more for supplies, where is the logic? At least in NY and IL the teachers get paid a decent salary unlike the pennies they pay the teachers in UT.
