Agile Education Marketing and SheerID partnered again for a third-annual Teacher Spending Survey. Compiled from the responses of more than 500 PreK-12 teachers across the U.S., the 2016 survey gives an insightful look into teacher spending habits.
The survey revealed that teachers spent an average of $487 out-of-pocket to purchase items for their classrooms during the 2015 – 2016 school year — only a slight $3 decrease since last year. The number of teachers who spent $200 or more increased 6% over the previous year to 77%. A majority of the money teachers spent went toward purchasing classroom supplies and instructional materials.
