[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Both of my kids schools pool the supplies until at least 3rd grade. When folders, comp books, etc are sent in, they go into a pile. The teacher (randomly) slaps labels on them and passes them back out to the kids. Every year we buy high quality supplies. Rigid plastic folders, five-star notebooks, hard back comp books, and every year my kids bring home floppy cellophane folders and dollar store thin floppy comp books, etc. My solution...I buy extras. So when they come home with something junky, I just peel the label off and put it on a quality item that will last the whole year. That way I am ensuring my kids don't end up with junk, but not contributing to the problem by sending in crappy supplies.[/quote] Why don't you label your children's stuff before you send it to school on day 1?[/quote] The list specifically says not to label any supplies.[/quote]
