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!

    Just re-sharing my classroom wishlist since Amazon Prime Days, Target Circle Week, and Walmart deals are all happening this week!

    If you feel led to help my preschool classroom, Iā€™d be so grateful. Every little thing helps create a fun, faith-filled space for my sweet kiddos to learn and grow. šŸ’›

    I am venturing out of my comfort zone to ask if people would be willing to browse my Amazon Wishlist and help purchase items for students at West High School, who frequently arrive without necessary supplies, and will encounter a significant difference as we transition from block to traditional periods this year. Some of these items are necessities and some are for fun. Thank you for your consideration.

    Support a Veteran Special Education Teacher ā€” Andrew J. Grotsky

    Hello, my name is Andrew J. Grotsky, and Iā€™ve been proudly serving as a Special Education teacher for 26 years in Fairfax County Public Schools (FCPS). I am currently teaching at South Lakes High School in Reston, Virginia.

    Each school year brings new challenges and opportunities, and this year is no different. Iā€™ve compiled a list of classroom materials and resources that will help me provide the best possible support to my students.

    I am from NC and i am going into my 2nd yr of teaching in EC. This year i dont know if I will be self contained or resource but everything on my list can be used for either one. My biggest goal is to make sure I have enough flexible seating and fidgets for all students to use while they are in my classroom.

    Hi! I am a 5th grade teacher starting year 27!! I absolutely LOVE to bring learning to life in my classroom and to do so requires organization and lots of supplies. Thank you for considering a donation from our classroom wish list. Your generosity is greatly appreciated more than you will ever know.
