Beginning September 2008, Shenendehowa has prepared a district-wide supply list for elementary schools that includes district-supplied items and parent-supplied items. This is an effort to reduce the variations across schools and the amount of supplies that parents have to purchase at the beginning of the year. Click here for the parent-supply list for students in grades K-5 for the 2008-09 school year.

 
arrow bullet In an effort to ensure consistent practices and protocols across our elementary schools, the district has developed an elementary handbook for students and parents and a volunteer handbook.
