School Supply List
These are suggested supplies for the school year. Follow steps 1-4 to be ready for success at McGavock.
If you are a freshman, sophomore, or senior, deciding on an organization system below will be required. Juniors, we highly recommend doing this, but it is not yet required unless you are in AVID.
Step 1: Select Your Organization System.
Each student should select an organization system that works for them. This system will be their preferred method of organizing their notes, handouts, tasks, and assignments. Students should select only one of these options or a combination of these to create their own system:
One Binder for all classes
Two Binders, one each for A and B days
Small Binder and a separate notebook for each class
One folder and notebook for each of the 8 classes (use 8 different colors for better organization)
Digital eBinder - you'll need your charged school laptop to use this in each class
Step 2: Select Your Planner System
Paper planner - can be daily, weekly, or monthly
Digital planner - use a phone or app/add a calendar to your OneNote eBinder
Step 3: Buy Your Organization System Supplies
Based on your choices on the previous page, buy only what you need from the column of your choice organization system.
