Central Middle School Supplies
The 2026-27 school supply packages are available through CMS for $40 a package. Purchasing school supply packages through our school is not mandatory, but all students are required to have all supplies when the school starts.
Packages must be pre-ordered from July 8 until August 18 through MyPaymentsPlus (MPP). Your student's supply bag will be ready for pickup during our back-to-school events on September 1 (4-8 p.m.) and September 3 (4-8 p.m.). If your supply bag cannot be picked up during one of our back-to-school events, your student will receive their supply bag within their first period class on their first day of school.
Please note that the CMS planner has already been included in the supply bag. If you would like to purchase only the CMS planner, you can pre-order it through MPP or purchase it for $5 at the back-to-school event or in school.
Families are welcome to purchase school supplies independently through any store; however, ordering through the school is encouraged as it helps ensure students have the correct materials prepared for the start of the school year.
Those who purchase school supplies independently are kindly asked to donate 3 boxes of Kleenex and 24 pencils to CMS by dropping them off at the welcome desk during the first week of school.
For supply scholarships, please contact Linda Yelland, our social worker, at Linda_Yelland@edenpr.k12.mn.us (Remember to mention the student's first and last name, as well as the grade the student will attend). During the school year, the school store will sell school supplies and be open in September, every school day from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m. and October-May on Tuesdays and Thursdays from 11 a.m. until 1 p.m.
