Supply Lists
2026 - 2027 School Year
Dear IEA Families, as we prepare for an exciting new school year, we're asking each family to help stock their child's classroom with the supplies below. These items support daily learning, creativity, and hands-on Montessori work throughout the year.
Please do not label these items with your child's name. Supplies are collected as shared “classroom community” materials and are distributed and replenished throughout the year as needed, rather than kept as any one student's personal supplies. Thank you for helping us keep every classroom well-equipped and ready for a great year of learning!

A Note From the Kindergarten Team
Please do not purchase other colors or brands. These supplies will be community supplies and should not be labeled. Please bring these items on Back to School Night. We truly appreciate your support! — The Kindergarten Team
