NP here - Please explain to me how a Kindergartner would need 100 crayons or 20 glue sticks !!![/quote]

No one is being asked to buy 100 crayons (usually, a 24 pack will suffice).  Not only do they actually use the crayons, they also break them, and render them difficult/impossible to use.  You can try handing a kindergartner a 20 pack of glue sticks, and see how long that lasts.  I'm not being facetious.

I remember when DD was in Pre-K, asking the teacher what supplies she would need on an ongoing basis.  She said glue sticks.  She said she can start with a thousand glue sticks, but by the time December comes around, it's all gone.  Kids are very generous when it comes to using supplies.[/quote]

Well you will be surprised. I went school supply shopping with my BFF and she had 4 boxes of set of 24 crayons on her kindergartners list[/quote]

Name the school or it didn't happen.[/quote]

4 boxes for kindergarten is standard. That is what was required when DC was in Kindergarten. You could probably go to any FCPS website and download their supply list since you're so interested. [/quote]
