Do we sent an email to the teacher if we can only afford half of the school supplies for a 4th grader?
I am sorry but we both been out of work after the Federal Governments cuts. |

Well, you certainly don't post about it here if you need help. Yes, email the school. |

| I would also go to a few back to school fair. You can gather much of the supplied if you go to a few. |

Many of the school supplies actually get handed into the teacher and shared communally anyway. And often they include things that a particular teacher doesn't even want. Yes, email the teacher and ask which supplies are most important if you'd actually like to purchase some yourself for your child, and/or ask the teacher or PTA if you'd like help accessing free supplies. |

| Also try to recycle what you have left over from prior years. |

You may be able to get some supplies at the MCPS Back To School Fair on Saturday:
