Rudyard Elementary School Supplies 2025-2026

Dear Parents:

            As we look forward to the beginning of school in the fall, some parents have asked for a classroom supply list for their child. Although the school does supply children with their classroom needs, it seems reasonable to provide a list to those who wish to contribute.
