Please make sure their name and 1-Allen is written on their pencil box and then place their pencil box in their school bag. Please make sure all these supplies fit inside the pencil box. The pencil box MUST be able to close and will be stored in your child’s desk.

· Put any extra glue sticks, pencils, dry erase markers, crayons, markers in a labeled gallon size plastic bag with your child's name on the front. Then, put this bag along with the rest of the school supplies in a labeled brown shopping bag and send it in with your child.

· Please be sure to label all of your child’s folders, composition book, zip lock bag of extra supplies, lunch box, snack, and school bag with your child’s name on it.

· Please make sure you keep a pencil box of supplies at home for your child to complete homework. You should have an extra set of crayons, pencils, glue sticks, and kid scissors at home.

Your child can bring these supplies with them on the first day of school which is on Tuesday September 6^th, 2022.

If you do drop off these supplies, please make sure they are all in a large bag with your child’s name on it, as well as Allen-1 on it.
