What's Cool:

DEADLINE HAS BEEN EXTENDED UNTIL

JUNE 7TH!

Avoid the hassle of trying to find all the items on the ‘school supplies’ list !

The supplies come in a handy “kit” – with the students’ name on it !

Order now (sale ends May 23) and forget about it!

The kit arrives a few days before school – we’ll have a special pick-up day so the students don’t have to tote the box around all day on the first day of school :-)
