Have you been searching the LWHS website for a school supply list and been unable to find one? That's because there isn't one. Mystery solved! Your students will get their supply lists from each of their teachers during the first week of school. Remember there are no lockers at LWHS, and it's safest to keep backpack weight no more than 10-15% of bodyweight. Here is more info on why paying attention to backpack weight is important.

And some helpful tips for your Kang to keep in mind while shopping:

  • Buy your backpack IN PERSON so that you can make sure it fits properly.
  • Avoid large binders/composition books when possible. Small plastic binders/folders or accordion files are great alternatives.
  • Water bottle- keep it small and lightweight and refill it during the day.
  • Only carry what you need (not a ream of paper or 47 pencils)
  • Set 10 minutes aside to clean out your backpack every week
