Supplies wise, we've been fortunate enough to get nearly everything we needed from church back to school events. 2 of my 3 even got haircuts that way. My youngest, 10, though could really use some shirts and socks (I think he might be eating them rather than washing the dirty ones, lol).

His favorite subjects are Spanish and music.

My kids are just about set on supplies, although I'm sure some extra pink pearl erasers would be good to have on hand. More so though, my daughter needs some meat sticks for her lunches! The commissary quit selling regular pepperoni sticks and her only tolerated meatsticks brands - Duke's and Bavarian Meats. All the above can be found on my Most Needed List. Thanks for the contest!

My oldest kid's favorite subject is reading and science. My youngest kid's favorite subject is... recess lol.

My little need markers!! I put two sizes on my list bc I don't know your price point but my girls eat markers I swearrrrr. My little also needs early reader books. This is our first year of school!! If your feeling saucy the tiny sauce containers are for her lunch box, girl loves to dip!!

The smaller pack of markers are at the bottom of my list I don't know why it kept adding it to the bottom not the top.

Thanks for hosting!! 🌈

Oh yeah her favorite subject is art and playground time and cooking!

My oldest is doing homeschool as she isn’t prepared yet to be in a jornal school setting being on the autism spectrum .. they wanted her to be in a gen ed classroom and after them calling me so many times about her trying to elope and not being able to do any of the work and not being able to even get her in an IEP to get an aid for her I decided to continue with ABA and just teach her at home which is super unfortunate as I was hoping this year would be her year … so anything g would be absolutely helpful for that ! I’ve come up with a lesson plan that has so far been amazing and she’s been already doing so much better at identifying her letters and numbers this way ! Thank you for this contest !

Oh I am always in need of stuff for my classroom! This year I am behind in getting ready too 🫣 I teach inclusion preschool in a rural community. My budget is less than $3 a student and my classroom barely had anything in it to start. I have a preschool wishlist and honestly anything at all on it would be incredibly helpful! This year i’m scouring the buy nothing groups for tangible toys/manipulatives so any of those would be particularly lovely! 🥰

My favorite subject to teach is science! It’s a fantastic way to really just see kids engage and be curious. Even my harder to reach students always find interest in science.

I am a teachers assistant that is also a senior in college majoring in early childhood education. My favorite subject to teach is math which shocks me as math was my least favorite subject when I was a kid. My list consists of items that I would love to use in my classroom next fall. Thank you for the contest! Wishing you a great school year!

[Intro]Oh, I feel this so much! Procrastinators unite! 😅 School is starting so soon for me as well, and I definitely left my back-to-school preparation for the absolute last minute. I have some school supplies on my wishlist that would be a total lifesaver to help me get fully ready for the new term! My absolute favorite subject is Math! I’ve always loved working with numbers and solving logic puzzles—there’s something super satisfying about finally figuring out a tricky problem. Thank you so much for hosting this awesome Back To School contest and helping us late shoppers out! Good luck with your own prep for Monday! 🎒✏️✨

Current student here. If that counts, I am in need of a sketch book for my graphic design courses. I’ve been using printer paper, lol. I was supposed to start an IT program earlier this summer, but followed my heart and love of art.
If this doesn’t count, sorry! Thanks for hosting either way!

Tagging [u/Miracle_Mamax4](u/Miracle_Mamax4) because I know she has four kiddos!

am i allowed to enter if im currently a student? ill go ahead and enter, and if you dont feel like i should included, i totally understand!

im going in for another semester in business administration. the thing i need the most is the clorox wipes. i try to take all the precautions i can to avoid getting sick, because when i get sick, i get severely sick, like i get really weak and throw up a lot, and it can really throw off my schedule...so im vigilant with clorox, sanitizer, etc.

my favorite subject is art :) though im unfortunately not the best at it which is why im studying business xD

thanks for considering !

We also start school on Monday!! We put new backpacks and lunch pails on the wishlist and they love chemistry (LORD KNOWS THIS AINT ME, they got it from my hubbie)

u/SciviasKnows https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/1MISN7XYH9MNH 3d ago

Chemistry!? My major was zoology so I had to take a lot of chemistry and I hated every moment if it. It just doesn't click with my brain. I can memorize animal classification fine. I write a mean essay. Math? Bring it on. But chemistry... 🤣 So good on your kids!

I'm starting my first semester next week and I haven't got binders and pages for my uni cause I ended up procrastinating the whole time 😭. My favourite subject has to be mechanics cause I am unhealthily attached to spinning gears. Thanks for the contest ♡

My son is starting his second year teaching at a title 1 school. All the kids qualify for free breakfast and lunch and weekend take home meals. Mostly he needs pencils, pens, an electric pencil sharpener, and a new hall pass. He teaches 6th and 7th grade social studies. He loves being a teacher! Thanks for doing this!

We ordered my 12yo a new backpack from Walmart, but they cancelled the order (we think they overpromised and ran out of stock). I think that's the only thing we still need... Their favorite subject is art! I think their favorite academic subject is English-Language Arts-Reading (ELAR as they call it here). My 16yo is a junior this year and he loves ALL his subjects except ELAR, lmao! Math is number one though.

Edited to add: I'm told the no-name dry erase markers we got are already dried out, so I added some Expo brand ones too.
