California is one of the states that lets teachers draw money for school supplies, or perhaps it is get reimbursed or is a tax thing. I only know about this because it was in the news recently that the fund was cut, or the level was dropped per teacher, something like that. She needs to inquire of the other teachers or the prinicpal, or her union. Most teachers end up spending money out of their own pockets, even if there is such a fund.
