Parents, It’s Shopping Time! Cheyenne School Supplies Lists
When August rolls around, kids and parents have one thing on their minds: school. I remember counting down the days to school starting as a student - mostly with dread (because who wants homework?) though I did look forward to seeing all my friends again. As for parents, many of us are ready for school to start (it's okay, we won't tell the kids.)
If you haven't started shopping for school supplies yet, don't stress. You've got a few weeks before school starts. Of course, for the best selection of epic backpacks and just the right color of notebook for your student, you'll want to start shopping ASAP. Laramie County School District #1 schools have their supply list out - check it out:
