All backpacks, lunchboxes, and water bottles should be free of images or messaging. Brand names are permitted. Patterns such as stripes or dots as well as nature patterns (like a floral design) are allowed.

  • Backpack

  • Translucent water bottle

  • Daily snack

  • Full change of clothes (should be left at school)

  • Indoor school shoes (should be left at school) (see uniform guidelines for more details)

A note on insect repellent and sunscreen. Because of the age of our scholars, we ask that you do not send them with their own sunscreen and insect repellent. Please apply before your scholar comes to school. As a supplement, the school will use Avon Bug Guard Plus with SPF 30. Permission slips allowing or opting out of use of this product will go home when school begins.

School Supplies?

Your school supplies (pencils, notebooks, etc.) are covered by the supply fee, so backpack supplies are the only thing your scholar needs to bring on the first day. The fee for the 24-25 school year is TBD. The supplies we will purchase for your scholar are listed here. You will have an opportunity to pay this fee by cash or check on registration day or by credit card at EZSchoolApps. For help with setting up your account and/or paying the fee online, see our instructions page.

No student will be denied supplies because of lack of funds. If you are in need of a sponsor to help with the supply fee, reach out to info@skillernelementry.com.
