School Supply Lists

School supply lists for the upcoming 2026-27 school year are now available! Please take a moment to look at the supply list for your student's courses. Confirmation of specific supplies needed for each student’s class will be provided during the first week of school by their teacher.

All students will be issued a school-owned iPad for instructional use during the school year. While not required, families may wish to purchase an Apple Pencil (or compatible stylus) to support note-taking, drawing, annotating documents, and other learning activities.
