School Supply Lists
Student/Parent Handbook
The following items should not be brought to school because they are disruptive to the learning process—toys, trading cards, CD players, iPods, skate shoes (wheelies), electronic games, dolls, athletic equipment, etc. These items are easily misplaced, traded or “borrowed” and we cannot be responsible for lost or stolen toys. There may be special occasions when teachers allow students to bring these things into school but you should receive written notification of that. The first time that an item is confiscated by a staff member, it will be returned to the student at the end of the day. If the same (or similar) item is brought to school again, the teacher will hold it until an adult can retrieve it.
