The following items are recommended for Santiago School students. While it would be most helpful if your child came to school with these supplies, however it is not required that they do so.
No. 2 Pencils
Large Pink Erasers
Large Glue Sticks (1.27oz.)
Red pens
Yellow Highlighters
Spiral notebook - (70-90 pages Wide Rule)
Kleenex Tissue
Antibacterial wipes
Hand Sanitizer (Large Bottle)
Baby wipes
Ziploc Bags (Sandwich size)
Band Aids
Copy papers (white or colored)
All students are required to provide their own headphones or earbuds. These will be stored in a Zip-Loc bag on which the students names will be written. The headphones will be used in the classrooms or will accompany the students to the computer lab. Personal headphones will help to ensure each student's personal health.
Headphones or earbuds may be purchased at local retail, discount, or dollar stores. Any style will work as long as they have the 3.5mm (small) plug that will connect to a standard computer headphone jack. For Gr 1-3, please purchase headsets with a built-in mic to be used with the Smarty Ants Program.
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 Santiago 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, Santiago 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 Santiago 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 Santa Ana Unified 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 Santa Ana Unified 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 Santa Ana Unified below.
