As the school year begins, it’s imperative that the first 6 weeks start off strong. Besides having strong routines and procedures, having sufficient supplies for students to start the year is also essential.
Having standard supplies like pencils, markers, crayons, and folders help students to attack the day from a stance of preparedness.
However, my students come from low income households and are not always able to come to school with such supplies. Providing students with access to supplies helps to somewhat level the starting line for all students. There are many challenges they face on a daily basis, one should not have to be access to school supplies.
Nearly all students from low‑income households
Data about students' economic need comes from the National Center for Education Statistics, via our partners at MDR Education. Learn more
