For the 2023-24 school year we are collecting money from families and purchasing school supplies in bulk for each classroom. By buying supplies in bulk, we are able to purchase high quality materials at lower prices. This will ensure that all students have quality supplies and will save families from having to search for them in the stores. The cost for school supplies for next year will be $55.00 per child. Please log into the KEV Payment System (link below) to pay for supplies.
If you are new to the Alderson community you will need to wait until September to pay for supplies. We will send information about how to do this in September.

If you would prefer to purchase school supplies on your own, school supply lists are posted below. When shopping for school supplies please keep in mind that the brands requested are important. While you may be able to find a similar supply at a lower price, low quality materials do not last and result in teachers requesting more supplies during the school year.
If you are concerned that the cost of supplies is more than your family is able to afford at this time, please let me know. We are providing these supplies at a subsidized cost currently but are able to subsidize supplies further for those who need us to. Please let us know by emailing astrang@sd43.bc.ca.
