Monika Wisniewska/123rf
Making school supply lists easy to find helps families prepare faster, reduces questions to your office, and creates a better back-to-school experience for everyone.
With TeacherLists, families can:
- View supply lists online anytime
- Shop in-store or online
- Access lists from any device
- Translate lists into multiple languages
- Use accessible, ADA-friendly digital lists
Best of all, you can share your lists in just a few minutes.
Embed Your Lists on Your Website
One of the easiest and most effective ways to help families access school supply lists is by embedding TeacherLists directly onto your school or district website.
Instead of sending families to PDFs or external pages, your lists appear directly on your website where families already go for back-to-school information.
Why Schools Love the TeacherLists Embedded Module
- Keep families on your school or district website
- ADA-friendly and mobile responsive
- Multilingual translation support
- Automatically updates when lists change
- Cleaner and easier for families to use
How To Add the Embedded Module
- Sign in to your TeacherLists account.
- Generate a TeacherLists embedded module directly from the My Schools or My Districts dashboard using iframe embed code.
- Click “Generate Module Code,” enter your homepage URL, and follow a simple two-step process.
- Receive your embed code and instructions immediately.
- Copy the embed code provided.
- Paste the code onto your school or district website.
- Use “Manage Module Code” to update domains or adjust settings whenever needed.
That’s it — your lists will display directly on your webpage.

I have shared it to facebook, school site, emails to parents, friends and family. PLEASE pick me I need the supplies.
At my school third grade has common supply list, and because we are a title one school our web page has to have the common list. Face book is discouraged as well. I can post the link to my open house presentation and give them cards with online info. Can that work as sharing my list?
I shared my list through Facebook, I just don’t know how to attach a link or a screen shot.
Thank you.
shared with families and business Thank you
