-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:

-It is highly recommended that your child have a small, inexpensive flash drive to transport documents between school and home. This will be used for the country report, All About Me project, and can be used for the rest of their school career.
-a folder at home for math corrections that are done: there is a cumulative exam at the end of the year, so it’s helpful to keep old work
-a water bottle that closes to be kept on the student’s desk during school
-white out, index cards (for the country report and for flashcards), 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)
