Each campus will communicate to its families how these school supplies will be provided to students. Parents should also be aware that their pre-K or elementary-school campus/teacher may also provide a Supplemental School Supply List for families that choose to purchase additional items – such as hand sanitizer or tissue boxes – in support of their child’s classroom.

MIDDLE SCHOOLS

School supply lists for all Ysleta ISD middle schools are now posted online! To access the list, visit your child’s middle-school webpage and click the Students & Families tab near the top, then click School Supply List for 2026-27. For the convenience of our families, the supply list includes links that make it easy for parents to make purchases from their favorite online retailers, such as Walmart, Target, and Amazon.

 HIGH SCHOOLS

Due to the wide range of diverse classes and programs offered at Ysleta ISD high schools, teachers will provide supply lists to high-school students during the first week of classes. This gives our high-school parents the time and opportunity to purchase supplies once their child’s class schedule and specific extracurricular/co-curricular needs have been confirmed.

Ysleta ISD is thankful for the strong partnership we share with our families as we work together to give every student a great start to the 2026-27 school year – one that builds confidence and prepares them for success both inside and outside the classroom.
