[quote=Anonymous]Oyster doesn't require school supplies ... each family is requested to make a small contribution (less than $50 if I remember correctly), then the school buys in bulk. Teachers then draw down from the school supply closet as the year goes by. (We've asked teachers if they need additional supplies that aren't available, but buy and large they indicate that they are getting what they need.) We feel fortunate. This system helps there be equity in that the same brands are utilized, resources are spent where they most need to be. Instead, we focus on "school" supplies like backpack, lunchbox, clothing if DC has grown.[/quote]
