Teachers Get to 'Shop 'Til They Drop' with $20,000 Office Depot Donation

Westcliff Elementary teachers were in for a treat as they geared up for the new school year! Thanks to a generous $20,000 donation from Office Depot and Boise Paper, every teacher received a $500 gift card to stock up on essential supplies and a few special treats.

A Shopping Spree Like No Other The aisles of Office Depot were filled with excited teachers, notebooks and markers in hand, as they shopped to their hearts' content. The donation allowed them to get exactly what they needed to create a welcoming and engaging learning environment for their students. From practical supplies like pencils and paper to small luxuries like a new classroom chair for a veteran teacher, the shopping trip was a chance for educators to indulge in a little retail therapy.

A Gift from the Heart For one 26-year teaching veteran, the shopping trip was a chance to treat herself to a new chair, a small but meaningful luxury after years of dedication to her students. The donation was more than just a practical gesture – it was a way to show appreciation for the hard work and dedication of Westcliff Elementary's teachers.

Strong Schools Built on Strong Partnerships The Office Depot donation is a shining example of the power of community partnerships in supporting public education. By investing in the teachers and students of Westcliff Elementary, Office Depot and Boise Paper are helping to build a strong foundation for a successful school year. The district is grateful for this generous gift and looks forward to continuing its partnership with Office Depot
