With the exception of Kleenex, nearly everything else on the following back to school list is obsolete and replaced with just three items in the 21st century classroom.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.

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.
