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 2025-2026 school year. This includes stocking up on school supplies for their students!

Did you know that many teachers pay for the 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 out of their own pockets.

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’m going to be a first-year 2nd-grade teacher. I have been buying stuff off my list for the past year, preparing for school. If anyone could help me finish my list. That would be great. Thank you ahead of time!! I have it set as a registry so that you could donate to items if you can’t afford to purchase an item.

    Hi there! I’m a second grade teacher for Lawton public schools in Oklahoma. I teach on Fort Sill Army post. Our district will not allow us to use Donor’s Choose but we don’t have classroom supplies unless we find a way to acquire them ourselves. I am incredibly grateful for any donation to my list. I’m running low on everything and I tend to share my supplies with the other six second grade teachers. Helping me is also helping an entire second grade team! Bless you for helping. 🥰

    Hi everyone, my name is Cheyenne! I am going into my 2nd year of teaching! At my district we do this thing called MCL. If you don’t know what that is, we have K-2 mixed into our classrooms so I have all three grades. It is very different where we basically run like a high school where they switch for Math and ELA. I will be teaching Kindergarten content this upcoming year!

    Anything would help! I marked some things down as most wanted and put things into categories, or if you would just like to contribute a little bit of money to my classroom fund for bigger items that is fine too! I want to make sure my classroom is comfortable for all of my students! Thank you! ❤️

    Welcome to Mrs. Hills Elementary Library, nestled within the quaint rural community. Serving as a vital resource in our Title 1 low-income Elementary school, we are dedicated to providing the best education. With population standing at under 400 people residents our library plays a large role in enriching the lives of our community members. In a town where access to a public library is not an option. Please support our school. We extend our sincerest gratitude for your steadfast support in empowering our students to achieve academic success and fostering a lifelong love for reading. Together, let’s continue to cultivate a brighter future through the power of education. Thank you for being an essential part of our journey. We are truly grateful!

    I have been a special education teacher for 13 years. I am currently in grad school to become a speech language pathologist. This upcoming school year I am working as an SLP assistant in a new school and would love some support with the supplies I need.

    After a decade teaching fourth grade, I will be moving down to kindergarten in the Fall! I would love to make this transition as smooth as possible for my new little learners and could really use some help obtaining more age appropriate materials!

    Hello everyone, I would like to thank everyone for all of the support of any teacher. I teach 7th and 8th grade Math. This will be my first year as a classroom teacher and I am beyong thrilled for this opportunity. Previous years, I have been a classroom para offering inclusion support for students. I want all students to have a positive and safe learning environment that allows them the opportunity to grow into the best version of themselves! And, hopefully they find a love for Math along the way!
