School supplies will equip your student with the necessary materials to be successful in the classroom. While our teachers typically stock up on backup supplies, your student needs to come to the first day of school with all materials listed on their school supplies list.


Order School Supply Boxes Through EPI

Students in preschool through middle school can order a box of school supplies needed for the next school year from EPI. Your student’s box of supplies will be delivered to their school building. Your order also benefits the school’s PTO! Each school has a special code to use for ordering.

On the first day of school, they will receive a syllabus that will list the necessary supplies for that class.

It is recommended that each student have the following:

  • Loose-leaf paper and/or notebooks
  • Pens and pencils
  • Backpack for supplies
