LCS provides a student planner for you to use, so you do not need to purchase one.

During the school year, it is your (the student’s) responsibility to notice when you need to replenish the items on this list and to then notify your parents so you will be able to restock things when necessary. You need to be aware of this ahead of time, before you run out of something, so your parents have time make purchases.

Items that are not required, but could be helpful:

-stapler, paper clips, scotch tape
-white out
-index cards (for the country report and for flashcards)
-3-hole punch
-things to organize your locker
-$3 for a lock for your gym locker (the school provides the lock; the students may not use their own)
