Peely's Teacher Supply House

Peely's Teacher Supply House

Proper supplies lead to improved student outcomes

Peely’s Teacher Supply House helps ensure that students and teachers have the resources they need for success. Teachers can order school and classroom supplies at no cost. These are items that teachers would otherwise have to buy with their own money. In these challenging economic times, many families struggle to afford the necessities that students need for school. When students come to class without supplies, teachers fill the gap. In fall 2024, Peely’s Teacher Supply House saved teachers more than $5,500 on supplies.

Expanding to Pre-K through 5th Grade Teachers
in February 2025

Greater Albany Public Schools teachers for Pre-K through 5th grade can now register to shop for free at Peely’s Teacher Supply House! Be sure to use your GAPS email address so we can verify your status. Teachers can order online once per semester.
If you have questions or need more information, email peely@albanypsf.org.
