Ontario Launching Classroom Supplies Fund to Support Elementary School Teachers and Students

March 11, 2026

Ontario is launching the Classroom Supplies Fund to provide elementary school homeroom teachers with direct access to $750 in funding each school year for classroom supplies.

Starting in September 2026, each teacher will have a Classroom Supplies Card directing them to the website, with instructions on how to access the site to directly order classroom supplies to their schools. The website will offer a grade-by-grade selection of commonly used classroom items, including writing supplies, notebooks, calculators, chalk, arts and crafts materials, tissues and paper towels.

The new fund, which will be launched as part of the province’s 2026 budget, will ensure teachers have the materials they need in their classrooms without paying up front and is part of the government’s ongoing work to ensure the provincial education system is supporting student success and helping them reach their full potential.
