    Try the local Staples store near your grandson's school - very often they'll have supply lists for local schools.

    Hi, DeeDee -- The required school supplies vary by location, so your best best is to check with your grandson's school or his new teacher. Sometimes the central school district office also provides this information. Once you're ready to go shopping, read "Shop Smart for Back to School" for some tips on buying school supplies. Good luck!

    My grandson will be in 1st grade this year and I like to help with his school supplies. Where can I get a list as I live in Kentucky?
