2024-2025 Supply List-Let’s make it easy ;)

Colonel Johnston Elementary
EXCITING NEWS…I AM SWITCHING GRADES THIS YEAR!
I will be moving from teaching 4th graders to 2nd graders. My BLOG may be a little confusing because the older posts will have information meant for 4th graders. BUT starting today, this will be a 2nd grade BLOG.

I am SUPER EXCITED to have you in our class-WE ARE GOING TO HAVE SO MUCH FUN THIS YEAR! I have been busy getting our new classroom ready and can’t wait to meet you all.

Let’s make it easy-Donate $30 at the Quest office or ONLINE. When making a payment for class supplies, pick the category “Donations-Class Supplies”, then select Clark in the drop down menu.

Mrs. Clark’s Class Supply List I BUY ALL THE SUPPLIES AND HAVE THEM READY FOR THE KIDS THE FIRST DAY 😉

I know how busy this time of year is and I want to help make it easier. I am asking guardians to pay a $30 supply donation to cover each student’s supplies. This way I can get all the needed supplies purchased and labeled before students come back to school. You can donate at Q1 during Back to School Night (August 19) or online here: ONLINE PAYMENTS 

When making a payment for class supplies, pick the category “Donations-Class Supplies”, then select Clark in the drop down menu. If you would rather purchase the same items yourself, please send me an email prior to school beginning.

Additionally, students will need to bring the following items:

Headphones/earbuds-labeled with their name. Guardians will be responsible to replace broken/damaged headphones/earbuds throughout the year.

Small bag if needed-A small bag used for personal items they need at school. Kids that go home with someone else and need additional things for after school, can bring a bag/backpack.

Small water bottle-Send a small water bottle (labeled) that they can have with them throughout the day.

NO backpacks. We are a technology school, so we rarely send any papers home. ONLY lunch bags are needed if they are bringing a lunch from home. I will provide a bag/book sleeve that will be used to transfer library books, or worksheets home once a week.

Lanyards are optional, I will provide them with a shirt clip. NOTE: they cannot have the kind of lanyard that has an elastic pull feature.

I will purchased the following items for your child with the class donation:

  • Crayons and additional art supplies
  • Plastic plain folders with metal paper holders and paper pockets.
  • Spiral notebooks/composition notebooks-Wide ruled
  • Scissors, pencils, erasers, and glue sticks
  • Whiteboards with an eraser
  • (3) Highlighters, Expo markers (10-12), and small black Sharpie markers (2)
  • Party supplies, birthday prizes, rewards/prize bin supplies
  • STEM/Science lab materials
  • Rendezvous sign supplies
  • Math tools/manipulatives and flashcards
  • Mother’s Day/Father’s Day gift supplies
  • Art projects supplies
  • Christmas and other holiday projects/gifts
  • Anti-bacterial wipes, hand sanitizer, tissues, paper towels, and bandaids

NOTICE: THE ITEMS ON THIS LIST WILL BE USED DURING THE REGULAR SCHOOL DAY.  THEY WILL BE BOUGHT USING CLASSROOM DONATIONS. THEY MAY ALSO BE BROUGHT FROM HOME ON A VOLUNTARY BASIS, OTHERWISE, THEY WILL BE FURNISHED BY THE SCHOOL.

Your child has access to all of their Quest student accounts this Summer. Their iREADY access QR was sent home with their grades. They also have access to their REFLEX and FRAX accounts. Keeping these skills, by spending a little time a week, will help them as they move onto 5th grade.

BE GREAT! SHOW WHAT YOU KNOW!

Students will begin taking end of the year assessments the next few weeks. A few things that will help the students during this week:
1- Sleep 
2- A nutritious breakfast
3- An “I can do it” attitude– encourage them to do their best. When they get home, ask them about their day. Celebrate their efforts.

I really appreciate your help with this! It makes a big difference when you child is well rested and not hungry for testing.

We are having a Utah Program at Quest (Q1) Academy, April 30 at 6:00PM. All of the 4th grade students will be singing different Utah songs for you. Best dress (what you would wear to a wedding or church) or school uniform please. Along with singing, a few students from our room will have speaking parts. These parts can be memorized. WE are excited to entertain you all! Invite everyone you know to come-no limit! 

All of the 4th grade kids have created something to show you about our beautiful state. To see what they have created, you may come before the program 5:00-5:30, or after the performance at about 7:00. Our class display will be in our classroom.
