State law requires us to provide a public education free of charge. Subject to certain exceptions, the right to a free public education means we cannot require students or their families to purchase supplies. Dunsmore Elementary will provide all of the necessary supplies for your child to have a quality educational experience.

However, many parents choose the option of purchasing their own supplies, not only for use at home but for their child to use in the classroom. Additionally, our teachers are often asked whether parents may donate supplies and other items for use in the classroom, and the answer is yes — we always appreciate donations!

Click on the grade-level links below for further details. You may choose to assist the class by purchasing from among the following supplies for general use in the classroom.

Any donations are greatly appreciated!
