[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I posted earlier about MCPS dictating items that can be on the supply lists. Folders were removed from the allowed items to be requested. I can guarantee that many teachers will ask for these on a “wish list.” We can ask for up to 12 (!) glue sticks, but no folders. [/quote]

Our school doesn’t distinguish between whatever mcps policy for supply lists and wish lists. They published 1 list for each grade and it was ridiculously specific (think: certain kinds and colors for folders).

I can’t/won’t reuse the folders or composition notebooks that were labeled by my kid for each subject. The glue sticks will dry out and be useless.

The frustrating thing is that this happens every year. If they realize they’ll ditch the notebooks after a week or two, then remove it from the list.

Re: whiteboards - we had to provide one…the supply list was very specific about the dimensions.

The list also included markers that were never opened because “our teacher said we couldn’t use markers and had to use crayons.”

You "can’t/won’t reuse the folders or composition notebooks that were labeled by my kid for each subject." Umm, unless they scribbled the label on every single page of the notebooks, they are absolutely reusable. Ever heard of crossing something out for the folder? Glue sticks stay good for longer than a year...you're just complaining to complain at this point.[/quote]
