8th Grade Supply List 2023-2024
 

Homeroom and general middle school supplies
 

• headphones
• refillable water bottle - please bring to school daily to eliminate the wasteful use of cups
• black/blue ink pens
• pencils
• 2 packs of loose-leaf lined paper
• a pack of colored pencils
• 2 boxes of tissues
• 1 roll of paper towels
• either a bottle of hand sanitizer or a pack of clorox wipes
• hanging locker book organizer (not required, but some students find them helpful)

ELA

• one 1-inch binder

Social Studies & Spanish

• One 2-inch binder (to be shared by Social Studies and Spanish)
• Dividers
• An inexpensive Spanish language dictionary.  These can sometimes be found at the dollar store or WalMart/Target.
• Paper to make book covers: stretchy fabric book covers won’t be allowed as they destroy book bindings. Brown paper grocery bags work great for this.

Math 8

• Spiral bound notebook
• TI-30XII scientific calculator 

Algebra I

• 4 AAA batteries for the graphing calculator (school provides the graphing calculator)
• notebook - nothing major and you can even use the back of your science notebook

Science 

• notebook - not a huge expensive one, can be part of a multisubject notebook
• folder - if your notebook has a folder, you don’t necessarily need an extra one

Religion

• single subject spiral notebook

FYI - Binders can be expensive.  There are currently about 40 binders in the bookroom at SMI that were donated.  If you don’t have one on the first day, we can definitely get you what you need.
