Suggested Elementary Classroom Supplies and Donations
At the beginning of each year, many parents request a teacher supply list so they can furnish some items as a donation to the classroom setting. Utah law states that supplies will be provided by the school, however, in the 2012 Legislative Session it was approved for elementary schools to compile and provide a suggested list of supplies that may be brought/donated/furnished by parents on a voluntary basis that will be used in the classroom.
Any list must include the following language: “Notice: The items on this list will be used during the regular school day. They may be brought from home on a voluntary basis. Otherwise, they will be furnished by the school.”
Tooele County School District appreciates all the supplies that parents choose to donate to help our students. If you are interested in donating supplies, we have created a suggested list by grade level.
Many classroom teachers appreciate general donations of closeable plastic storage bags of various sizes for classroom use.
