Filer Teacher in Focus highlights the teachers and educators that provide a front line to helping our youth learn, develop, and grow. They care greatly and spend countless hours creating a friendly classroom environment. 

We averaged out of pocket teacher spending from four national news sources and came up with $672/year. While classroom spending varies our teachers and educators are working hard to provide a friendly learning environment for our youth. Items like books, paper, binders, crayons and pencils, dry erase markers, glue sticks, the list can go on to specific presentations or hands on activities.

We are happy to help with our Filer Teacher in Focus!
