School Supplies Kits
Heading back to school in September can be a busy time! As a service to our families and a means to raising funds, the St. Joseph School Supplies Kits program was created to help those who may not have time to shop for everything on the St. Joseph School Supplies List--or would rather leave the shopping to us and enjoy their last few weeks of summer vacation!
Each kit contains all of the items listed for students at every grade level and gender. The kits, however, do not include personal items such as backpacks, lunch boxes, PE shoes, paint shirts, or cloth storage bags (required for grades 4 -8).
Families are also encouraged to purchase a special drawstring Sportpack with the school logo, which can be used for anything from lunch and a jacket to gym shoes. The Sportpacks may also be purchased separately.
Quantity discounts and purchase agreements with retailers allow the school to sell the kits for a lower price than you would expect to pay if you purchased the items yourself—usually significantly less— all while realizing a profit that helps support St. Joseph School!
Still not convinced? Consider the following:
•Purchasing a St. Joseph School Supplies Kit is good for our environment—we order items in bulk and have them delivered to the school. Fewer cars on the road means less polution.
•The kits feature environmentally-friendly cleaning products, and they are packed in durable reusable “St. Joseph School” tote shopping bags!
•Purchasing a kit means no more clipping coupons or making multiple trips to the stores to take advantage of weekly specials.
•When you purchase a kit there's no need to worry about the stores running out of supplies or wondering whether or not you have the right items.
•The kits are delivered to your child’s classroom, ready and waiting for you on the first day of school!
The 2012-2013 St. Joseph School Supplies Kits will go on sale in April 2012. All returning and incoming families will receive a mailing containing the order form and the 2012-2013 School Supplies List.
Orders received after June 30th will be subject to a $10 processing fee per kit.
