Below is a list of the most common items your children need for 6th 
grade. Although you are NOT required to purchase them, anything you 
can provide your child with ahead of time will be greatly 
appreciated. 
#2 Pencils ( 1 dozen) - From experience, pencils that use #2 lead 
are preferred over the constant sharpening that is required from the 
ordinary pencils  
Storage for pencils, pens, etc. (zippered pencil case is 
preferred but boxes are acceptable)  
Erasers  
Ball Point Pen (blue or black) 
Glue (school) or glue stick  
Colored Pencils  
Washable markers (set of 8)  
4 Wide or College ruled Notebooks (one for Language Arts 
Science/Social Studies, and Math)  
5 Pocket Folders (Please, NO Trapper Keepers/Binders � They are 
not recommended because of lack of space in the students� desks.)  
2 correcting pens with red ink  
12" Ruler with metric and standard measurements  
Clear Back pack or book bag  
Highlighters  
Scotch tape  
Book covers � Math, Science, and Social Studies books must be 
covered and remain covered all year. This will be strictly 
enforced.  
Dictionary/Thesaurus (pocket size or paper back)  
Small travel pack of tissues (more during the winter/cold season: 
everyone seems to get sick at the same time, so we run out of 
tissues fast.)
