    Practical BTS Tools for Teachers

    A new school year means a fresh start, and for most teachers that also means a lot of preparation and excitement for what’s to come. Instead of sending your student to school with only their essentials in hand, consider showing a little love to their new teacher with some helpful tools they are sure to enjoy. With a little help from School Specialty, you can help your student’s teacher get BTS ready.

    Great Teacher Gifts for Open House

    Your student’s open house night is the perfect time to give their teacher a little something to show your support and appreciation for all they do. Before the school year starts, teachers are working hard to make sure they are ready to take on a class full of bright young students. Take an idea or two from this list to brighten their BTS season.

    Colorful Organizational Tools

    There’s something about happy colors and fresh supplies that makes a teacher feel ready to roll. A gift of filing folders for keeping student information straight, or a lesson plan book might add a little more convenience to their busy schedule. Other welcome additions to any classroom include clear storage containers for teacher supplies and Post-it notes for important reminders.

    Dual Purpose Desk Decor

    Whether grading papers after class or enjoying a quick break while the students are at lunch, teachers need to have a space in the classroom that feels like their own. Help your student’s teacher fill their space without cluttering their work area. Unique items like a Post-it Notes dispenser and photo holder look great and serve two purposes, while a cute tape dispenser can also add style without appearing untidy.

    Cheerful Classroom Essentials

    Teachers work hard, but even work can be more fun with the right tools on hand. Every teacher is sure to appreciate a few extra essentials at the start of a school year. Whether that means a pack of sharpened pencils, a Bouncy Band for keeping fidgety students busy, or even just some fun-colored dry erase markers, having items like these will make any teacher’s job more convenient.
