Firstly, teachers should be paid more. Period. Secondly, the school district should be providing supplies for the classrooms. Third, parents should do their part by supplying their children with the basics. Finally, there should be a fund for the teachers to purchase supplies for their classes and for the students who cannot afford to buy supplies.
I think perhaps the school districts are putting our teachers and parents in a bad situation. They don't fund the teachers, the teachers request supplies from parents, the parents get irritated and then the teachers get defensive about it. Meanwhile the school district has wiped their hands of the issue.

I think you should run for your local school board. You've hit the nail on the head on all counts!
