Instead of schools just providing materials for the classrooms, each family has to buy their own kid a dedicated set of supplies. You could pool the supplies and distribute news ones as needed, but if you do this for anything beyond tissues, parents start freaking out because “I bought MY child that SPECIFIC crayon set and it’s not fair that OTHER kids gets to use it because THEIR parents didn’t care enough to get them a special set.”
The only problem with that is if people have other needs. I.e. in terms of different paper or texture feelings etc. However this, too, is easier when you know the standard and can see if that fits you.
Yeah, there would have to be stuff in place to make accommodations for sure. But we already do that for plenty of materials and needs. And currently most differentiation in materials is because parents want to splurge so their kids can have the “nice” things
