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 so grateful for any support—big or small—it truly means the world.

    I’m starting a brand new chapter teaching 4th grade this year (after being in 5th), and I couldn’t be more excited! ✏️🚌📚

    If you’d like to help me get my classroom ready, here’s my Amazon wishlist:

    Thank you for supporting teachers. I am going into my 3rd year of teaching 8th grade, and I know myself and my students are incredibly grateful for any contribution to our classroom. In my list you will find items for student rewards, activities for early finishers, and several items to help organize our classroom. Thank you for contributing!

    Thank you for giving us the opportunity to share!

    Starting over in second grade after teaching 4th, 1st, and K. I teach in a title I school facing many budget cuts. I’ve already spent $400 on crayons and other supplies. I’d appreciate some help with things more appropriate for the “big kids.” Many things are under $10.

    Hi, I am a teacher in a Title I district in Texas. This will be my 8th year teaching, but my 2nd year as a Lead Special Education teacher . I pull small groups for students in grades PK-5 that need extra support. I am in need of supplies/materials/snacks for my students. Since I am not a regular classroom teacher, I do not get any classroom supplies/tissues/sanitizer, etc. Any help is greatly appreciated! Thank you so much!!

    I can’t thank you enough for supporting the teachers. This is very kind of you and all the people that contribute to our classrooms. I am a kindergarten teacher from Perth Amboy, NJ and I appreciate any contributions you can make to our classroom.

    Hi! I am starting to create my classroom for my new kindergarteners and everything adds up quickly. I’ve put together a wishlist of items that I am planning to add to my room this year!

    Thank you! I am a fifth grade reading/language arts teacher in Oklahoma. I love creating engaging lessons and experiences for my amazing students. This is my fourteenth year teaching, and I love it as much as I did on day one. We are grateful for prayers and support as we soon begin our next school year!

    I’m a teacher from Texas going into year 4 in public school, and my second year in First Grade! I’m looking forward to meeting my new group of Fabulous Firsties!! One of my biggest passions is reading – to my students, with my students, and sending them home with quality books. We also spend time drawing during Free Draw Friday. I love giving them many different types of materials they can use. Thank you so much for your all you do!! It is greatly appreciated!!
