Wise Supplies

Print out an info sheet to share with your team!

Wise Supplies is a Free Teacher Resource Store founded by the Pasco Education Foundation to help alleviate the financial burden for families and teachers. Many times teachers spend their own funds before letting their students go without. We want every student to have the basic supplies they need for academic success.

Follow Wise Supplies on Facebook and Instagram to stay up-to-date!

Teachers – Shopping for the 2024/2025 School year is open!  

 

Our regular Wise Wednesday schedule will begin August 14th 2-6pm, and Saturday Shops and Online Shopping will start in September!

Remember to sign up for an available date and time, if no date/time slot is shown on the calendar – we are either FULL or not open.  Please check back regularly for cancellations.

 

 

Reminder – Quarter 1 shopping is from July through end of September.  We follow the calendar quarter – it does not align perfectly with the school quarters.  You may shop 1x per quarter!  Quarter 2 shops will be October- December, Quarter 3 shops will be January-March, and Quarter 4 Shops will be April & May.
