I purchase everything out of my budget with the exception of a few items.
. Last year I got $600 for 550 studetns.
This year, the PTA bought me watercolor refills and sharpies. I also got
folders for 1-5 grade and posters to make portfolios for k-5. All of this is
on the students supply lists, so they pay for it. I also get donations at
the end of theyear for glue, crayons, Crayola colored pencils and anything
else left over. Also, the kids bring white and colored construction paper so
I don't have to get that out of my budtet. Everything else like tempera paint
or chalks I order from my budget, which I haven't gotten this year. Hope that
helps. Janet
