What are the most requested school supplies? According to our good friends at Classroom Central, the nine most in-demand supplies are:
- Crayons
- Markers
- Composition Notebooks
- Dry Erase Markers
- Filler Paper
- Glue Sticks
- Highlighters
- Pencils
- Pocket Folders
We've been paying attention: All of our school supply kits contain multiples of these items. In fact, a Teacher Replenishment Kit provides 2/3 of the items in quantities to outfit a full classroom.
