Teachers can use the new Walmart Classroom Registry to save on classroom supplies for the school year.
To help teachers fund their classroom supplies, Walmart launched a new program for 2023 — the Classroom Registry. Available on Walmart.com and in the Walmart app, this tool helps teachers plan, shop, and share their classroom wish lists with others. That way, friends, family, and loved ones can contribute by purchasing items off the list.
You can find a specific Classroom Registry online by visiting Walmart’s registry page and searching for your teacher’s last name and state.
