School Supplies
Welcome to the 2011-2012 School Year at Diplomat Elementary School! Although the school provides the materials and supplies for basic instructional activities, the optional supply items on this list will allow your child to have an enhanced educational program. We appreciate your commitment to the education of your child, and with your donation we can provide a great program for the students here at Diplomat Elementary School.
For your convenience, many of these supplies will be available in the Cafeteria during Open House for you to purchase, if you choose. These lists have been compiled for each grade level. Please be aware that individual teachers may have additional requests for supplies.
Important Note: Diplomat Elementary does not allow rolling backpacks. We have found that they create a safety hazard on our school campus. We appreciate your understanding.
