SUPPLY LIST FOR NATHAN HALE MIDDLE SCHOOL 6th GRADERS
This List was updated on August 10, 2008

Scroll down to find the Supply List from the 6th grade academic core 
teachers (Math, Science, Social Studies, Language Arts, & Reading) 
at Nathan Hale Middle School

We have divided the list into several categories.  An explanation 
for each category is given.  


EVERYDAY SUPPLIES 
These are the items each student will need to carry with them 
everyday.

SUPPLIES ON HAND
The items listed are basic supplies that students need to have at 
home or stored in their lockers.  They will not need to be carried 
to class everyday, but may be needed to complete random assignments 
in class or at home.

PROJECTS
Students will be doing a variety of hands-on projects throughout the 
year.  Supply lists for these assignments will go out in advance of 
the project by individual teachers.  Most projects will require the 
use of crayons, colored pencils, or markers.  The first Social 
Studies project in August will require the use of white, unlined 
index cards.  The first research project in Language will require 
the 
use of multi-colored, lined, index cards.

PLEASE NOTE
Students will be using lockers in sixth grade.  The lockers are very 
narrow.  Please do not buy oversized backpacks or backpacks with 
wheels.  They will not fit into the lockers.  Students are not 
allowed to carry their backpacks with them from class to class, but 
they can carry them to and from school.    This rule also applies to 
the new styles of slim, lightweight, book bags many children have 
been wearing as purses or backpacks.  
	
There is a dress code in Middle School.  Students cannot wear short-
shorts or high-cut mini skirts; this includes mini skirts worn over 
tights or leggings.  Sleeveless tank tops or tops with spaghetti 
straps are also prohibited. Underwear cannot be exposed; this 
includes boxers or panties that peak out from above the pant 
waistline.  Flip-Flops, Tongs, and open-toed shoes are very 
dangerous types of shoes to wear in school.  Children can trip, stub 
toes, and drop items on their unprotected feet when wearing these 
types of shoes.
