I am going to be a freshman in high school this year and I was wondering what supplies I need.?

-book covers. teachers <3 them -blue, black, and red ink pens -pencil -a binder or two (some teachers like you to have a seperate one for their class, but they usually dont care) -a calculater with the root sign on it if you are taking algebra, a graphing calculator if you are taking geometry. if you arent sure just get a standard one until you teacher lets you know, because they can be a bit pricey - paper. lots and lots of lined paper -something to write your assingments in, if your teachers dont post them online -some spare change is always handy anything else you want. a lot of girls carry around lip gloss, hand cream, make up, and purelle wipes (the wipes mostly because we have a lot of germaphobes at our school, because it is so freaking nasty). **Edit** backpacks are cool, but since you have to carry all your stuff around most girls bring a cute side bag that will fit their binders and stuff in them (like from american eagle, hot topic, vera bradley, ect)

Some supplies are necessary year after year, no matter what grade you’re in. When you’re planning for a new school year, it’s pretty safe to invest in these.
