"What IS the deal with summer? One minute you're at a barbecue, the next you're buying notebooks like it's some kind of school-supply apocalypse!" 📝🌭
We're halfway through summer, folks. HALF. That means it's time to take a break from pool floats and popsicles and start perusing sales for pocket folders and pencil cases. Find your school's supply list here: rusd.org/supplylists
