School Supplies
PTA has paired with EPI (Educational Products Inc) to create pre-wrapped school supply packets. A flyer went home 2 weeks ago it looked like this: https://www.educationalproducts.com/ShopPacks/
The cost for a packet is $60. This save the crazy shopping and dragging yourself and child or children in 100 degree heat, hoping the item is stocked in the store. Then the struggle of bringing items to school.
https://www.educationalproducts.com/ShopPacks/
The code is IND001 (those are zeros in the code)
The school will post the lists for school supplies soon....check back at https://www.lisd.net/Page/51 often for events , news and information !
