Staples to host Teacher Appreciation Day

Staples is doing it’s bit to support teachers, by hosting a Teacher Appreciation Day, which will be held at it’s retail stores across the US.

Teachers, according to Quality Education Data, Inc, spend around $475 per annum on equipment used in the classroom.

Budgets continue to get tighter and teachers are finding themselves spending more and more of their own cash on materials used within the classroom, to make sure their candidates are able to extract the necessary information from each lesson.

Staples reconise the fact that teachers face a tough challenge, and the Teacher Appreciation Day is a way of repaying the 280,000 teachers that visit their stores every year, for the commitment to the national education industry in the US.

Staples have agreed to host the event throughout their US stores, and give away free gift bags to the teachers.

Staples Teacher Rewards is part of the scheme, which aims to hopefully repay teachers for their own input, financially, to education, and the Teacher Appreciation Day, which is scheduled for August 2, is hopefully the start of many great things to come for teachers.

Alongside the Rewards, and teacher day, Staples will be running a teacher Bonus Season, which will commence on July 15, and run until September 15, which means every $1 spent by teachers, will count towards $2 worth of rewards.
