METRO DETROIT | BACK TO SCHOOL

Adopt a classroom

Teachers around here spend their own money on their classrooms. Every single year. These are real lists from real local teachers... pick one, buy one thing, and Amazon ships it straight to their door. That's the whole thing.

  • Find your child’s teacher, your old teacher, or a school in your town. Any list on here is a real teacher in Metro Detroit.

  • The link opens their Amazon wishlist. Grab whatever fits your budget... a $6 pack of markers counts, I promise.

  • It ships straight to the teacher. No money passes through me, and I never see your payment information.

  • No. There's no pot of money and nothing to donate to. You're buying directly from a teacher's own Amazon list, the same as buying anything else on Amazon. I'm just the place the lists live.

  • Please do. Use the nomination button below and put yourself down. I email every teacher to confirm before anything gets posted, and I only ever show a first name and last initial. If your district has rules about this, check with your building first... I'd rather you be covered.

  • Nominate him or her. Takes about 30 seconds and you don't have to buy anything.

  • I taught for 15 years. Second grade through sixth, and then I was an assistant principal. I bought my own supplies every single August. Nobody hands you a budget for the stuff your kids actually need. This is the easiest thing I know how to do about that.

Know a teacher who should be on this list?

Nominate them. Yours, your child’s, your neighbor's, your own. Takes about 30 seconds and there is nothing to pay for.
