How do the students get supplies and toiletries?
We do have an on-campus store that sells things like notebooks, pens, toothpaste, shampoo and calling cards. These items may be student billed, which means that the student does not have to have the cash in hand to purchase the items, but a bill goes home to the parents. The Senior Store, run by our senior class, also sells items like candy, pop (or soda), ramen noodles, ice cream and sometimes individual pizzas. If these items are not enough for the student, it is possible to go into West Branch or Iowa City to the local grocery stores or a student can go on town trip to Iowa City to get other supplies that aren’t offered here.
