With the exception of Kleenex, nearly everything else on the following back to school list is obsolete and replaced with just three items in the 21st century classroom.
 
| 
The Chromebook Flip is a laptop
  and a tablet in one device. Type or write. It's up to you. It also comes with a full productivity suite of
  collaborative apps perfect for schoolwork: Docs, Drawing, Sheets,
  Slides.  All apps work even when not connected to the
  internet.  9-hour battery life means you don’t have to worry about
  a power cord.  
Cost:  $229 | |
| 
Practical and stylish lightweight
  case with three separate zippered compartments to hold whatever else a student
  might want to bring to school. Perfect for headphones, tissues, keys, and
  makeup.  
Cost: $19.99 | |
| 
For those times when you need the
  internet, but don’t have a connection, use a MiFi.  This one can
  connect up to five devices. Consider splitting the cost with a few
  classmates.  
Cost: $59.88 for a device. Data plans range from $10 - $45 per
  month. |  |
