School Supplies for 2009-2010
Dear Families,
In order to reduce costs, ISM would like to try ordering school supplies in bulk. How would this work? Teachers would submit their class supply lists and then a master list would be compiled. We believe we can get a better price for school supplies by ordering in large quantities. Also, some suppliers give the school a 5% or 10% discount for purchases. Once a master list is compiled we would then break it down to a per student cost.
In years past school supplies have cost close to $70 dollars in some classes. Once the per student cost is calculated, each family would be sent an invoice. Families would then submit a check for the requested amount. The checks would have to be received before the end of this 08-09 school year in order to guarantee that the supplies would be ready for the students on the first day of school.
In order for this to work, there must be widespread participation across the grades. Before proceeding, we would like feedback from you as to whether you would like to purchase supplies through ISM or are you more interested in purchasing supplies for your child(ren) individually?
Please respond to this email with your preference to Ms. B in the 5th grade at sburns@ismonterey.org as soon as possible. You can indicate your choices and information on the lines provided below.
Thank You,
