Answer
****SCHOOL SUPPLIES******
BASICS
- No. 2 pencils
- Mechanical pencils
- Colored pencils
- Pencil sharpener (hand-held with a top to collect shavings)
- A large pink eraser
- Ballpoint pens (Get a few red ink ones too, because some teachers have students do peer editing.)
- Highlighters
- Spiral-bound or composition notebooks
- Loose-leaf notebook paper (Teachers can be picky about paper. Some ask that students use the college-ruled variety.)
- A ruler with English and metric measurements
ORGANIZATIONAL HELPERS
- Several three-ring binders (Some teachers require that a binder be used exclusively for their class.)
- A three-hole punch (a regular one or one that fits in a three-ring binder)
- A pencil case that fits in a binder
- Binder dividers (The kinds with pockets are good for loose papers.)
- Pocket folders
- Folders that fit in binders
- Agenda/Planner
- A calendar for scheduling assignments
- A sturdy, supportive backpack (Some schools do not permit rolling backpacks because of space considerations, so check with your school before considering this option.)
- Two combination locks (If the school lockers do not have built-in locks, you might need one for the hallway and one for the gym.)
- Flash Drive to save any important documents
STUDY AIDS
- Index cards, ruled and unruled (These are great for making flash cards.)
- Highlighters
- A calculator (Check with the math teacher first before investing in an expensive one. Graphing calculators, for example, are required in many high school math classes. Teachers advise parents not to buy a calculator with more functions than students will use.)
*****WHAT TO BRING ON THE FIRST DAY****
Folder - for all the syllabuses, rules, guidelines, & supply lists that your teacher passes out
Pencil - Just in case your asked to do a small activity that involves writing
Paper - Again for the small activity
Locker items - If your locker was already given out to you then it's best to bring your lock & throughout the week you can bring your locker items.
Binder - Just a 1"
Backpack - To carry everything and sometimes teachers give out textbooks
Money - For lunch of something
--And any girl/boy accessories that you may need. (ipod, phones, makeup, brushes, etc.)

Round the World Trips?
Synergy
Hi!
My sister and I really want to do a round the world trip as we have pangs for travel all the time and I think its the best way to really SEE the world whilst we're young, free, single. Boy I sound like my parents ha!
I have been looking online and the prices VARY so much. Guess it obviously depends what places and what times of the year u go etc. Wanna keep the prices down as far as possible but wondered does anyone know if there is an operator who books accommodation too for you combined in one big price?
THANK YOU!
Answer
Hi. I, too, am planning a round the world trip. You can pretty much go to most travel agents and they'd be more than helpful for you ventures. I originally thought that I had to do most things personally through a RTW organization (One World, Star Alliance, etc) but not the case. If you're a student, you can even contact your local StaTravel for help. I'm going through them at my school. They're helping me with the flights and trips and it's extremely easy going with their help. Some advice--some countries would actually be safer and cheaper going by tour (that is if you had the idea of just backpacking around in mind like I originally did)
And yes, prices vary greatly on where you go. On top of that, it also depends on where you depart from. RTW tickets prices depend on departing country so departing from say New York would be more expensive then buying your RTW ticket from Canada.
A very useful starting site for you to check out is: http://wikitravel.org. There just search "Round the World" and presto. A lot of useful tips.
