TO PARENTS AND MERCHANTS:
All textbooks are furnished free to Lubbock Independent School District students. The McDougal Littell Handwriting Program is used at the elementary level and handwriting paper should be consistent with those guidelines. The following supplies are expected to be furnished by pupils. Not all pupils in the same grade use the same supplies at the same time; therefore, the teacher's instructions should prevail.
