What is “Clear the List”? It’s a nationwide movement to support teachers by purchasing items for their school supply lists.

School will be back in session soon (some districts start in just a couple of weeks!) and teachers are already working hard to prepare their classrooms for the new 2024-2025 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for a majority of classroom supplies out of their own pockets? Yes, it’s true! Classroom supplies are not cheap and many school districts and families are struggling. This leaves many teachers to pay for school supplies themselves.

Teachers always go the extra mile for their students, so let’s show them how much we appreciate them by giving back and helping to fulfill their supply lists!

You can help by donating items from teachers’ Amazon shopping lists!

Teachers and educational professionals can head over to Amazon, create a classroom wish list, and then share their lists publicly. Anyone can ‘donate’ items that are on the list, and after donating, donors can even leave a note or message letting the teacher know how much they are appreciated. So awesome!

Even better, if you post your list on social media and tag Amazon with #clearthelist, you may find that your list is cleared BY Amazon! So cool!

Teachers, follow these steps to make your classroom wish list on Amazon:

  • Head over to Amazon and hover over Account & List at the top. Select ‘Create a List’ from the drop-down menu and name your list.
  • Hover over the three dots More menu on the right, and click Manage List to update your shipping address (this is important!) and other preferences like whether you want the list to be private or public. You can also designate whether your list is for an organization and if so, you’ll have the option to provide the website address of the organization.
  • Click ‘Save’ and then you can start adding items to your list!
  • To add items to your wish list, simply browse for products on Amazon and then click ‘Add to List’ under the Buy box on the right-hand side of any item’s product detail page.
  • Only list owners can make changes through Manage List. Both list owners and collaborators will be able to add and remove items.

If you’re a teacher, be sure to share your teacher list in the comments below so that readers can help clear the list! 🙌

Plus, treat yourself to something special with these teacher discounts!

    I am a 6 – 8 Career Readiness teacher. My classroom theme is “Nautical/Ship” because I work in SHIPpensburg. I am also obsessed with Carnival cruises, so it works.😉 We do a “Shark Tank” like project in 8th grade. Most of the items I’m asking for are from my student end of course surveys of things they would like to see in our classroom. Thank you!

    I’m a K4 EC teacher at an elementary school in Goldsboro, NC. My class consist of 7 students, the majority with Autism. I would like to add some educational items to my room to make this school year a successful one for the kids! Any and all help is greatly appreciated!

    Hi! I’ve been teaching high school for five years. This year I’m teaching math and am also the senior class advisor. I started a new incentive system last year that my students loved. They’re motivated by food! Any help is truly appreciated. Thank for considering our classroom to support. https://www.amazon.com/hz/wishlist/ls/20J5S6DEV2OP7?ref_=wl_share

    Second year middle school behavior teacher. My previous co-teacher has accepted a new position so I am basically starting over with needed items. The big items I’m hoping to get are colored Velcro, colored electrical tape and an electric pencil sharpener. Thanks everyone!

    I teach 8th grade science at a Title I school in Texas. Many of my students rarely have the necessary supplies to be successful in any classroom, so it falls on the teacher to provide supplies. It hits our bank accounts pretty hard! Even though my school provides each teacher money at the beginning of each school year to purchase items, it’s never enough. Anything purchased from my list is GREATLY appreciated!
