[quote=Anonymous]Hey everyone

I’m the OP who posted asking about snack time as well as backpacks.  I have a kindergartener and also a first grader both going to ATS this fall. I am also due  at around the same time school starts :/ I’m trying to think of the things I need to get ready for the school year. Let me know your thoughts and if there is anything I am missing.

-school supply kits: ordered one for first grader and apparently school orders one for kindergartener. This covered pencils, folders, crayons, notebooks etc right? Is there anything else I need? Do kids have pencil cases these days?

- Labels - I heard Mabel labels were good. Any other recommendations?

-backpacks - gonna order them ASAP

-Lunch bags, lunch boxes and snack boxes: they have a lunch bag and a lunch box. Will order something for snacks just in case. Is there anything else I should get? Does it make sense to get a thermos? Also is the food at school any good (this is for Arlington Public Schools)? Would love to not have to pack lunch

- sneakers - for PE? What do kids wear for PE? Just sweatpants or something or just anything comfortable? I went to a private school with a uniform so unfamiliar with what kids in public school generally wear.

- water bottles. Got them new ones. Do they keep these in school or do they bring them home every day?

Is there anything else I’m missing here?

Thank you!
