9-12th Grade Supplies

DCG High School does not have a general supply list for all students. Instead, each class and teacher has different requirements. Supply information will be provided directly to students by their teachers during the open house and on the first day of school.

This allows teachers the flexibility to request materials that support their specific course content while helping families avoid unnecessary purchases.

We  encourage students to come prepared on the first day with the following basic items:

Their fully charged Chromebook

A notebook or binder with paper

Pens and/or pencils

A folder for organizing handouts
