Teachers, did you know that there are discounts out there for you, just for being … you? Of course, those of us at Teach Starter believe teachers are some of the most important members of our society — we are teachers too, after all! — but we’re not alone.
There are bookstores, museums, and more out there where you just need to show your registration to receive a special something. And our team has done a little work to round up some discounts that may help you this school year — from a special Apple teacher discount to save you on your classroom (and at-home) devices to a Frankie4 teacher discount for some much-needed teacher shoes, here are some of the best ways to save.
Bonus: We’ve even got a little Teach Starter discount!
Teach Starter Teacher Tip: Keep that registration handy, and flash that card where ever you go! You never know where you’ll snag a discount just for being a hugely valued community member.
