When Back To School Shopping Isn’t Fun

The smell of new crayons 🖍 …
the crispness of untouched notebook paper 📝 …
The plethora of notebook 📓 designs to choose from…
Trapper Keepers + Lisa Frank 🐬+ Jansport backpacks + new lunchboxes (that you only use twice until you forget there’s a half eaten ham sandwich in there and find it a week later and now you can never look at that lunchbox the same! 🤢)…

Back to School shopping might just be some of our favorite childhood memories. But not all families have the same experience.

Here in Hall County there are teachers who fully expect their entire classrooms to show up on the first day of school with zero school supplies. Who knew?! School supply shopping is a luxury?!

And now with the dramatic rise in gas ⛽️ prices, groceries 🛒, and housing 🏠 costs… school supplies just might be a non-option for some.

There are some groups here in HallCo that are on it though! We intend to find them and share their info so you can stay in the know!
