Organizational skills are a key element of success that middle school students work toward. To assist with this objective, we have purchased four different colored binders, along with dividers for each student. Each academic class will be assigned a color and each student will use that color binder for that class. We ask that each student bring in $7.50 (checks can be made out to West Middle School) to their homeroom teacher on the first day of school for these supplies. This cost is significantly lower than if these materials were purchased at local stores.
We have also compiled a list of supplies that each student should bring to school the first day. We encourage you to refrain from purchasing bulky trapper-like items or extra large back packs, as they will not fit into lockers (The locker interior measures 12.0” wide by 10.5”deep. You may want to purchase a plastic “locker shelf” that meets these dimensions – a helpful organizer.) The compiled supplies list for the team is as follows:
 | Reinforced Lined Paper – 200 sheets (reinforced is suggested because it lasts much longer – if you would rather purchase regular paper, you may want to consider getting some reinforcement stickers – the small round ones – just in case!) |
| Soft Pencil Case (that will clip into a three ring binder) |
| 5 Blue/Black Pens |
| 2 Red Pens |
| 5 Pencils (at least) |
| Binder Sized 3-Hole Punch |
| Colored Pencils |
| Highlighters |
| Box of Tissues |
| Roll of Paper Towels |
