School Supplies

Dear Preschool Parents, 

We are thrilled that your preschooler will be joining us here at St. Anne’s Episcopal School for the 2020-2021 school year. We are very excited to embark on this new adventure together.  Attached you will find a list of supplies that we are asking each student to bring for use in the classroom. 

Please feel free to contact us with any questions, clarifications or concerns that you may have with any of the supplies.

We look forward to seeing everyone soon!

Enjoy the rest of your summer,

*******************

All Children:

• Backpack with approximate dimensions of 15 1/2 W x 12 1/2 D x 6 1/2 H 

**“Preschool” sized backpacks are typically too small for the items children carry back and forth to school each day, selecting one with these dimensions will help ensure your child’s belongings and projects arrive home safely and intact.***  ☺

• 1 Change of seasonal clothes, including underwear & socks, placed in a labeled Ziploc bag

• 1 Pair of Rain Boots (to keep at school)

• 1 OAKI Wear Rain Suit (please order up a size or two, so there is room for growth)

Full Day Students:

• A one-piece, Nap Mat with approximate dimensions of 24”W x 56”L.   (Wildkin Nap Mat is a wonderful suggestion, this particular type of mat is easy for the children to roll up.) 

 

Dear Pre-K Parents,

Your child should label all of their supplies and we recommend color coordinating all notebooks and folders by subject so that each subject corresponds to a specific color.
