By now you probably have figured out I am a teacher...and very proud of it. I also LOVE teacher appreciation days. I have been known to go to three Staples in one day to collect goodies...most of which are used as give-aways for my students or during meetings.
Here is a list of the teacher appreciation days coming up this summer. Be sure to check on line or call to find out the exact dates in your area.
Staples, OfficeMax and Office Depot stores host Teacher Appreciation Days as Back-to-School creeps closer for many teachers. While these are the basic event details, some stores go above and beyond these details to honor area teachers.
:: OFFICE DEPOT
Office Depot hosts an annual Star Teachers breakfast. In addition to free breakfast, teachers will receive a tote bag filled with gifts and 10% off your entire purchase. You must register for the Star Teacher program in-stores. Be prepared to show a teacher ID to qualify. Call your local store for the Teacher Appreciation Breakfast date or visit the Star Teachers website and wait for an update.
:: OFFICEMAX
OfficeMax is holding Teacher Appreciation Days at stores nationwide. Teachers will receive 25% off their purchase, increased purchase limits, a free reusable tote and exclusive coupons and other discounts. Event days vary. Check for the event dates at a store near you. You do need to be a Maxperks Teacher in order to participate. Register here.
:: STAPLES
For Teacher Appreciation, each Staples store will feature new must-haves classroom items and teachers can enter to win a $25 Staples gift card. The first 100 teachers will receive a free shopping bag plus 20% back in Staples Rewards on everything they can fit in the bag. The celebrations occur on Saturdays in August. Participating dates vary by location so be sure to check the date for your specific location. Register to be a Staples Teacher Rewards Member.
Staples stores are also unveiling a new Reward A Classroom program. Teachers can earn extra rewards from parents and friends to help keep their classrooms stocked all year. Teachers can be linked to as many as 40 parents and earn up to $50 from each parent every year. Learn more here and at the Staples Teacher Appreciation Event.
