I am a classroom teacher. That's right! I teach a bunch of awesome 5th graders and I thought it would be fun to write about back-to-school items that we are loving for this 2024-2025 school year. So, as the leaves start to turn and the school bells ring, it's time to gear up for another exciting academic year ahead so grab your backpacks, sharpen your pencils, and let's dive right in!


1. Snazzy Stationery:


First things first, let's talk stationery! A fresh stack of notebooks, colorful pens, and cute sticky notes can instantly spruce up your study sessions. Remember, a well-organized desk leads to a well-organized mind! These items are the meat and potatoes of what student's will need for the school year. Keep in mind that all teachers are different, so check your school's updated supply list.

2. Trendy Tech Gear:


In today's digital age, having the right tech gear is essential. Whether it's a reliable laptop, noise-canceling headphones for those study sessions, or a quirky flash drive to store your work, make sure you're tech-ready for the year ahead. These are a few that are always on our list.




3. Comfy Clothing:


Comfort is key when it comes to sitting through those long classes or running during gym sessions. Stock up on cozy hoodies, funky graphic tees, and stretchy leggings that will take you from the classroom to the football games in style but start with these three items. (style post coming soon!)

4. Healthy Snacks:


Staying fueled throughout the day is crucial for keeping your energy levels up and your brain sharp. Pack your backpack with nutritious snacks like granola bars, fruit slices, and mixed nuts to keep hunger pangs at bay.


5. Agenda & Planner:


Stay on top of deadlines, assignments, and extracurricular activities with a handy agenda or planner. Color code your tasks, set reminders, and make sure you never miss a beat this school year. This planner comes with stickers, additional pages, and a notes section.

6. Stylish Gear:


A little inspiration can go a long way, especially during those moments when you need an extra push. Make sure to get bookbags and lunchboxes that are sturdy and reliable. For our girls, get a nice, small crossbody bag for your women items and makeup if you want to freshen up.




7. Cool Shoes:


Don't forget the importance of a good story shoe! You will want to have a few options for your footwear including tennis shoes, sandals, and dress shoes for all occasions such as gym, dances, picture day, and for play.
