RE: SCHOOL SUPPLIES PROVIDED FOR 2022-2023 SCHOOL YEAR
Dear Community Partners,
In the spirit of the District’s Community Schools philosophy, we believe that with collective support from family, school and community, our students will succeed.
In an effort to ensure equitable access to school supplies and promote academic success for every student, the Elmira City School District will provide the bulk of school supplies for the 2022-2023 academic year for all students. Students will need to bring their own backpacks.
All school supplies and materials that students need for school, with the exception of backpacks, will be provided for all students in Pre-K – 12 by the Elmira City School District for the 2022-2023 academic year.
We can leverage the power of bulk purchasing to purchase necessary supplies for a fraction of what families would have to spend on their own. Our administrators and teachers have identified the supplies necessary for classroom learning.
Of course, families are welcome to supply their students with items, but it is not required. Additionally, the District is grateful for the ongoing support from community agencies. If you represent a community agency that would like to support the families of Elmira through donation, please contact your student’s building principal or Beth Manwaring in the District’s Office of Public Information at 607-735-3091 or
[email protected].
Family, School, Community: Together We Succeed.
