School Supplies Project

Pencils, notebooks, folders, markers, glue sticks — having this kind of basic school supplies  is critical to creating a learning environment where students can thrive, from their very first day in the classroom. But long supply lists create burdens on families, and unfulfilled requests make it hard for teachers. 

That’s why the PS9 Parent-Teacher Organization (PTO) organizes the purchase of back-to-school supplies for every student at our school. We ask families at our school to make a suggested contribution of $50 per student to cover the cost of their school supplies, and to give extra if they’re able. But we have many families at our school that aren’t in a financial position to contribute.

If you would like to help cover the cost of a child’s back-to-school supplies in our community, you can do that with a donation to the PS9 PTO.
