๐Ÿ **Whittemore Elementary School โ€“ 2026-2027 Supply List / Lista de รštiles Escolares** ๐Ÿ

The countdown to the new school year is on! While the district covers classroom funding, our teachers count on family donations to keep supplies stocked. If you're able to send your child with a few extra items, it makes a big difference. ๐Ÿ’›

๐Ÿ“‹ Full supply lists by grade (Kโ€“5th) are in our flyer โ€” includes wired headphones, Expo markers, glue sticks, and more.

๐ŸŽ **Wish List:** Tissues, Clorox wipes, hand sanitizer, and paper towels are always appreciated classroom donations!

๐ŸŽ’ Reminder: every student needs a backpack daily, and a reusable water bottle is recommended.

๐Ÿ“‹ Las listas completas de รบtiles por grado (Kโ€“5ยฐ) estรกn en nuestra imagen โ€” incluyen audรญfonos con cable, marcadores Expo, barras de pegamento y mรกs.

๐ŸŽ **Lista de deseos:** ยกPaรฑuelos, toallitas Clorox, gel antibacterial y toallas de papel siempre son bienvenidos!

๐ŸŽ’ Recordatorio: cada estudiante necesita una mochila todos los dรญas, y se recomienda una botella de agua reutilizable.
