1st Grade Supply List
2025 - 2026
Welcome to 1st grade! Thank you for your help as we prepare for the new school year. We are asking for specific brands for some items because we have realized that these brands hold up and do not have to be replaced as often throughout the year.
- 1 pair of headphones (please no earbuds)
- 1 clipboard with a flat clip at the top
- 1 plastic pencil box
- 1 pair of Fiskars scissors
- 2 packages of sharpened Ticonderoga pencils
- 1 pack of Expo dry erase markers (low odor)
- 1 pack of pencil top erasers
- 4 packs of Crayola crayons
- 10 Elmer’s glue sticks
- 2 boxes of tissues
- 1 12 oz. bottle of hand sanitizer
- 1 container of disinfectant wipes
- 1 1 in. 3 ring binder
- 1 red plastic 3 prong folder
- 1 re-usable water bottle with spill-proof lid (NO STANLEY CUPS PLEASE)
- 1 backpack
*Boys- 1 box of baggies (quart or sandwich size)
*Girls- 1 box of baggies (gallon size)
Optional—extra glue sticks, extra crayons, extra disinfectant wipes, extra tissues, extra Ticonderoga pencils, Band-Aids, small prizes for prize box
We strongly encourage you to watch the ads for sales during the months of July and August. Many of these items will be on sale. You might also consider buying a few extra items while they are on sale to be sent in mid-year if your child’s supplies need to be refreshed. Tax Free weekend will start July 25th. It is a good idea to stock up at this time on items that might need to be replaced mid-year (crayons, glue, etc.).
If you cannot find some of the above items, we will work with you to make sure your student has what he or she needs to be successful in the classroom.
