[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]In my experience, teachers are HOARDERS. I recommend that you do not buy any supplies, especially for K, until you have talked with the teacher to see what s/he actually needs. Take a look in their supply closets if you get a chance, you'll be amazed. If your kid is just excited and wants to buy a few things and you do it for fun, then okay, but don't go overboard. Also I recommend in future years just purchasing through school. Most schools have that program so you don't have to worry about it.[/quote] Do you have any idea how many of those supplies in the supply closet the teacher has purchased herself? Many of my students show up to school with very few supplies. I purchase pencils and journals in bulk from Staples. This past year I actually went through over 400 pencils. Kids need them, so I provide them. [/quote]
