The Evansville Vanderburgh Public Library is once again partnering with the Teacher Locker in our next Seasons of Sharing.
Library users of EVPL collected several vans full of school supplies over the last two summers!
According to their website, the Teacher Locker is a place where EVSC teachers grades Pre-K-12 can receive FREE school supplies for their classroom at no cost to the teacher. The goal is to reduce what teachers spend out of their own pockets for their classrooms.
Beginning Monday, July 1, and continuing through Wednesday, July 31, Seasons of Sharing will be accepting donations for the Teacher Locker at all eight EVPL locations.
- CK Newsome Center
- Swonder Ice Arena
- Deaconess Aquatic Center
- Rochelle-Landers Pool on Lincoln Avenue
- Red Mosby Pool in Howell on Barker Avenue
- Lorraine Pool on Adams Avenue
The Teacher Locker‘s mission is to be “a place where the community can come together to provide free classroom supplies in order to support teaching, promote student achievement and drive school success.”
Items needed
The Teacher Locker has a Wish List, with items needed like:
- Notebooks
- Pencils
- Paper
- Glue, glue sticks
- Scissors
- Markers
- Paint
- Art supplies
- Classroom decorations
- Calculators
- Staplers
- Binders
Items may be new or gently used, but should be practical for the classroom. For example, VHS players may not be suitable for modern classrooms.
