Supply Lists

Each year, we ask for support with classroom supplies. The lists linked below indicate what would be most helpful and students should bring them to the Open House if possible. If you are unable to purchase the listed supplies, please don't worry. We will make sure your child has what they need to learn.

Classroom/Teacher Assignments

Families will be notified in late August about classroom/teacher assignments. Requests for specific teachers are not allowed in order to maintain equity in the process. The 2025-26 classroom configuration has been posted.
