All students are assigned a locker (measurements are: 72" high x 14.5" wide x 19.5” deep) with a built-in combination lock. The backpack should fit comfortably into the locker. The School provides each student with an assignment book with the school year letter day schedule. All students should have:
- A sturdy backpack (rolling or hard frame backpacks are not permitted)
- A two-inch sturdy binder with sections for: English, math, an elective, humanities (other subjects will provide folders)
- Five or six dividers for the binder
- Notebook paper for the binder
- Six marble composition books (for English, Spanish/French, science, health, French humanities, elective — see color guide below to color-code books by subject)
- Pencil case with: pencils, blue or black pens, highlighters, pair of scissors, glue stick, pencil sharpener, ruler, erasers (you may need to replenish these supplies throughout the year)
- Small set of colored pencils
- Small set of markers in different colors
- A small, soft gym bag that can fit inside the lockers, for physical education (PE) clothes.
- An inexpensive scientific calculator
- One water bottle
We suggest buying a couple of extra binders/folders and notebooks early in the year while there are sales because items will probably be lost over the course of the year.
COLOR CODE for Composition Books: Spanish = YELLOW; English = PURPLE; science = GREEN; math = DARK BLUE; Chinese = RED; French = PINK; humanities = BLACK; electives = ORANGE; health/PE = LIGHT BLUE
