School Supplies for 2022 - 2023
Introducing our New Online Ordering Option!

Hello Rockwell Families,

Good afternoon from campus! I hope this message finds everyone enjoying this Redmond sunshine and staying cool. We're excited to welcome everyone back for another great year in a little over a month from now.

Families: I wanted to send a reminder about purchasing school supplies. We are using a new online vendor, EPI, that has pre-packaged supply kits for each grade. This will hopefully save you time driving from store-to-store, and it will ensure items are in-stock. To use their service, click on this link and type NOR756: ShopPacks . From there, you will click on the "Order Your Supplies Now" button and select the pack for your child's grade. Please consider ordering sooner rather than later to account for shipping time, and if your pack arrives before 8/18, please swing it by the school, so we can put it in your student's classroom (if it arrives after 8/18, please bring it to the Open House on 9/1). Here is a handout from EPI with more information: LINK. K-2 families: please don't worry about the "Nicky's Communicator Folders" - that is a pretty unique item, so I will order them on my end and provide one to each student.

You are also welcome to purchase your student's supplies at the store - here are links to each grade's supply lists: LINK. Please click on the link to your student's grade, and it will pull up the list.

If anyone needs support in purchasing supplies for the year, please reach out to our wonderful school counselor, Mrs. Bauer (kbauer@lwsd.org)

Thanks, everyone, and please let me know if you have any questions. I'll send another email at the beginning of August with more information about our 2022 Meet & Greet and Curriculum Night (for now, please add a 'save the date' to your calendar for the afternoon and early evening of 9/1). We look forward to welcoming back our Beagles for another great year this fall!

Kind Regards,

Michael Clark
