I decided I dislike the school supply lists now days! I saw one list that said 4 doz. #2 pencils. Seriously, why does each kid need to bring that many pencils. Forget buying your kid the "fancy" stuff, because most of the time it just gets poooled into a bin. What happened for parents being responsible for buying what their kid needs. If the 4 doz pencils are really just for my kid (probably for the whole classroom) why can't I buy them what they need now and then get more later? Oh looks like you hit a little school supply nerve since I don't even have to buy what's on the list!
[...] the List.pdf (47 KB) i have been quietly amused the last couple days as the first day of school approaches and parents are filling the stores to get the list. [...]
