Where can I buy bulk/wholesale colored pencils in Canada? I have a large class and I can't
keep up with the cost. Specifically Laurentian colored pencils.

Thank you,
morah

Doesnt the Board of Education buy supplies ?

Limited amount, yes. But lot of teachers buy school supplies to help their students. In a lot of cases parents simply cannot afford the school supplies.

morah, I found this site School-Pak, Inc. | School Supply Kits | Prepackaged School Supplies | Smencils | Zipper Binders at google. Check there under 'bulk pencils' if this one doesnt work well for you.

People would be surprised how much teachers spend out of their own pockets to help in the classroom......

I can't help with specific stores, but would it be a possibility of asking some of the office supply type stores to make donations? Some places will do that when they know it is for a class/school.
