 | On July 1, 1985, Discount School Supply (DSS) founder, Ron Elliott, opened the doors of his very
small business in
San Jose, CA. From
the beginning, offering educational toys and classroom items, Ron wanted to specialize in arts and crafts supplies at the lowest prices supported by
an extraordinary
level of service.
Most importantly, he wanted to serve teachers. |
| Ron produced the first 16-page DSS catalog on his own computer. 25 years later, the
Discount School
Supply catalog has
grown to over 500 pages with several specialty catalogs. From that small facility in San Jose, DSS now has warehouses in 4 locations nationwide. The
extraordinary
level of service continues. 97% of our customers receive their orders in just 2 business days. |
But our passion for products has always been top-of-mind…
As the leader in arts and crafts for early childhood, DSS’s proprietary brands,
including innovative
BioColor® Paint, Liquid
Watercolor™
Paint and the full range of Colorations® arts and crafts materials have changed the industry
and are customer
favorites. Our
Product Development program has added hundreds of unique products across all curriculum based categories. With our addition in 2008 of products for
children with special needs, we can now truly serve all children. Delivering quality, durability and
versatility at
excellent values is
what drives our passion for products. |
We’re committed to the future of children…
Our eco-friendly program began 25 years ago when DSS began to re-use the boxes sent to us by vendors. Since
1990, we’ve used
biodegradable and
recyclable packing material. We have a growing list of eco-friendly products and allergen-free items. Our Quality Assurance program ensures our focus on the safety of the products we sell.
|
We’re so grateful to each of you…
Our customers are the best! Your dedication to caring for young children inspires us to provide great products and top values to meet your needs and
those of the
children in your
classroom. This year, we’re celebrating 25 years of your trust in us that has helped grow our company. |

Supply. |
