My issue with the lists is that there are always items on them that the kids never use. Last year my 5th graders had crayons and colored pencils on the list and they never even opened to box of crayons. They had to get compasses, their math book didn't have any work with a compass. So this year I bought the things I think they will actually use. Of course I had the unopened box of crayons and compass from last year so that did get put in their box. I wonder if they will use them this year.
Mike, for the shorts have you been to a sporting goods store? I found yellow shorts at Dick's for my kiddo. We also had to have black and green, found those at Dunham's Sports. Not only did they have to be a certain color, but they had to be knee length.
