Are public schools really like this now?

Are public schools really like this now?
When I went to school, I basically only needed to bring a notebook and a pencil.

My boyfriend raised a woman's child, because she considered him too troublesome to raise (he was almost done with high school when I met my boyfriend) and he considers my boyfriend his father.

So my boyfriend's "son" has kids of his own.

This girl is starting her very first year of school, and the list of stuff she needs is ridiculous.

She needs baby wipes, paper towels, dry erasable pens, these items have to be a "specific" brand.

The notebooks have to be a certain color.

This is public school. Wouldn't the school normally provide such things as paper towels and baby wipes and dry erasable pens?

The only thing I can figure is that the school is depending on the parents to provide that which the school automatically should.
