Rachel Carson School Supply List

2022-2023

****PLEASE CLEARLY LABEL ALL OF YOUR INDIVIDUAL USE ITEMS****

Rachel Carson Families,

Welcome to a new school year! Below you will find the supplies that your child needs to have for

the school year. Please consider, when buying, the amount of packaging and plastic you are

using, the possibility of a more environmentally friendly option, and reusing everything you can

from previous years.

There are three sections:

1. Individual Use: standard school supplies. Shop at home first. Most of these items you

probably already have. Please reuse and buy items with the least amount of packaging if

possible.

2. Field Work: These items will be needed on site visit days. Resale shops are a good place

to find these items. Students will be told specifically what to bring on each site visit. Our

first site visit is scheduled for September 21!!

3. Community Use: These items will be used by all students.

If you are unable to get any of these items or have questions about them, please contact

Rebecca Hall at rebecca_hall@beaverton.k12.or.us

FOR INDIVIDUAL STUDENT USE/ALL STUDENTS NEED THESE: many of these can be

reused from prior years!
