School Supplies Shopping
What school supplies are essential for my student’s school and grade?
It starts with the list from your school, but you want to make sure you miss nothing. Last year we introduced a web service called, “School List with a Click.” With this school supplies list service you can find your school/grade and download the supply list to your device to make shopping easy. That leaves your student able to focus on choices that express their individuality – a scientific calculator may be on the list, but a rose gold calculator can turn a tool into a fashion accessory. Highlighters are an essential study aid, but with a 10-pack of assorted colors, your student can categorize, organize, and even express themselves creatively. And don’t get us started on all that’s possible with assorted sticky notes.
Where can I go to donate school supplies?
The best answer is at your school itself – we’re talking about teachers. It’s well known that most teachers pay out-of-pocket to ensure their class is properly equipped, including for those students who may have forgotten their school supplies, or may not be able to afford the more expensive supplies. If you’re able to help, your teacher will gratefully accept any classroom essentials that are in constant use, including facial tissue, notebooks, pens & pencils, pocket folders, loose leaf paper, cleaning wipes, and hand sanitizer. You can also drop off school supply donations at most Office Depot OfficeMax locations. There are bins at the store where you can just drop them off. We’ll take it from there. We make sure these supplies are delivered to those most in need.
Where is the best place to buy school supplies?
We’re a bit biased here, but we believe Office Depot OfficeMax is the best place to buy your school supplies. With several students in a household, different lists per school/grade, a limited budget, and a limited amount of time to get it all done with the least amount of fuss, Office Depot OfficeMax offers the convenience of one-stop shopping, with sale priced items throughout back to school season. By partnering with your local schools, we try to make your experience, fast, affordable, and even fun! Your students can go on the hunt for cool locker accessories while you make sure you’ve counted the right number of notebooks, glue sticks, etc. Sorry, but somebody must do the tedious work while the kids have fun. Don’t worry – your time will come once they’ve all gotten to class and it’s “parent time!”
