In addition, you can
always build a starter kit of first grade school supplies and add to it as needed before the school year begins.
The first grade teachers at Garza Elementary will typically update their school supplies list on a yearly basis, we
try to update this list accordingly however we advise you to check with your child's first grade teacher and double check with the school, Garza Elementary, to see if there have been any changes to this year's first grade supply list.
A couple of things to keep in mind when ordering your first grade supplies, consumable school supplies tend to run out long before the school year ends so take advantage of the back to school
offers and stock up on the basic supplies, your child's first grade teacher at Garza Elementary will thank you for that, and more importantly, your child's presence is the most important thing, the supplies are second to that and your teacher will
be more than understanding if you are unable to purchase all of the supplies on the list. Have a wonderful, safe and happy school year!
Be sure to order plenty of hand sanitizer and due to recent events, it is more important than ever to stay in touch with Mcallen Isd to find news and any schedule changes that may take place.
One of the most important pieces of information for you every school year is the Mcallen Isd District Academic Calendar. There, you will find your child's schedule for the entire school year including holidays, staff development days, half days, testing days, first and last day of school, etc. See the calendar for Mcallen Isd below.
