    Yeah, because everything sold in Wal-Mart is made in America. Well, maybe back in 1990.

    Sure, if you want to buy a supplement.

    But the argument by some is that humans aren't supposed to drink milk. I guess we're supposed to eat an assload of green vegetables, then, because calcium citrate tablets weren't around 6,000 years ago.

    That's just bull . If the schools want to demand a certain brand, they can supply it for the kids. Maybe the schools would like to collect a small, reasonable fee and they can do the supply shopping. I'm sure there are quite a few parents who would be happy to give up the supply shopping trip.
    Hence, the wrap pacs you can buy from us:

    Our PTA provides 'Wrap Pacs' you can buy. We don't make any money off of it, but it's very convenient.

    I always forget to order them so I end up buying supplies myself.

    It is if some mother would remember to order it at the end of the year when orders are being taken. You'd think this mother would have remembered this seeing that she is this PTA's treasurer and saw all the checks coming in for said product.

    Well, a 1/2 cup of broccoli has about 1/8 the calcium as an 8 oz glass of milk, 300mg to about 38mg. As much as I would like everyone to eat a trailerload of pecans each, they have a lot more zinc in them than calcium.

    The specifying of certain brands is very simple. Those brands WORK! I'm sure people with parents or even the average person in here that has walkded down a school supply isle know the amount of CRAP that is out there. There are tons of brands and gimmiky supplies that are really just junk. There are parents out there that don't really look into what they buy for their kids and end up getting a bunch of either crappily made or poorly designed stuff that just ends up being a big hassle for the teachers. So the districts make lists and specify a certain brand or type of supply so this doesn't happen again and again. Elmers glue works, and sure there are other brands that do too. The problem is when a kid comes to class with some weird brand of sparkle glitter glue that either doesn't come out of the bottle right, or stains the out of everything it touches. Scissors that don't cut, markers that dry out, backpacks that fall apart, are all examples of why certain brands are listed. Now certainly parents can make up their own minds on what to buy, but what is the horror over taking some good advice from some people who have seen this year after year? Buy what ever you want, but when little Jimmy or Sally come home crying that the Mother's Day card they made you self destructed because of some ty glow in the dark, glitter, scratch and sniff glue you bought them didn't work worth a damn, don't start complaining. Elmers was on the list.

    Actually they do....well, the PTA at my kids' school does it. You just put your name on the list and pay whatever the price was, and they'll have it in your child's teacher's room by the first day of school.



    Obviously I didn't finish reading the thread before I replied...

    Now, I really dislike NISD, I mean really, and I don't necessarily believe that there's a -wagging contest going on between who's noteobok is better.

    Does the list specifically state that outrageously designed notebooks are not allowed? I doubt it.

    Damn...when's the last time you guys were in school!! Of COURSE there is -wagging over who has the coolest notebook, backpack, lunchbox, whatever...

    And they do list specific things they can't get, btw.
