Tools for Schools Drive is Well Underway

Many Acadiana children could use your help getting basic school supplies.

With school just weeks away parents are gearing up and hitting the ground running looking for the best deals to make sure their child has the right tools for school.

"It's a pretty long list and I only have Ethan and one on the way. I can't imagine anyone that has more than one because it is a lot," said Shelley Broussard.

With more than eighteen items on one school supply list for a third grader, not counting multiple of the same item needing to be purchased, parents say it really adds up when shopping for supplies.
