This tenth grade school supply list is a suggested high school supply list only. We select supplies, that are most common, from the thousands of supply lists we review each year. There are few new items that have been added due to the Covid-19 pandemic including masks, sanitizers and disinfectant wipes.

Schools are asking that supplies are not to be shared, due to Covid-19, and therefore should be labeled with the name of the student. Most schools are also asking that school supplies are stored in a ziploc bag.
One of the Core Beliefs of our school system states that The Board of Education, superintendent, and all staff value a diverse school community that is inviting, respectful, inclusive, flexible, and supportive.
These are difficult times. Yet, we remain dedicated to this belief. The senseless deaths of Ahmaud Arbery, Breonna Taylor, and most recently, George Floyd have given rise to some of the country’s deepest forms of anguish, fear, sadness and outrage.
As you may be aware, a few WCPSS students and staff members aggravated and trivialized the emotions felt by many across the nation, particularly members of the African American community, by making racist, vile, and thoughtless statements on social media.
To be sure, the racist actions of a few do not define our school system. However, we cannot be silent in the face of racism in our community or beyond. Our Core Beliefs compel us to see, to understand and to interrupt racism in all its forms.
These Core Beliefs challenge educators and families and require us to have a positive influence on the community beyond education. Through our collective work, perhaps we can create a way forward in dismantling racism and other negative influences that affect our school community and nation.
We encourage each of you to use this moment in history to strengthen your commitment to achieving racial equity. This means working to address the injustices that exist beyond education by the conversations we have with others, by speaking up when we see hate, by supporting efforts that oppose racism and oppression, and by directly engaging in advocacy work.
Hold this compelling work closely to your heart. If children master academics but fail to appreciate the value of inclusivity, respect, and diversity, we as adults have fallen short of preparing them for tomorrow.
