TeacherLists is excited to announce a new partnership with CMS4Schools, a leader in school communication and content management solutions. This collaboration brings together two trusted platforms to make the back-to-school season more streamlined and stress-free for educators, families, and administrators.
For over two decades, CMS4Schools has supported K-12 districts with powerful tools that enhance communication, improve accessibility, and strengthen engagement across school communities. Now, with the integration of TeacherLists, schools using CMS4Schools-powered websites can make school supply preparation even easier for families—offering direct access to up-to-date supply lists and one-click shopping with major retailers including Target, Walmart, Amazon, Staples, and more.
“TeacherLists has always been focused on simplifying the back-to-school process and making it easy for families to get the supplies their children need,” says Dyanne Griffin, Vice President of TeacherLists. “Our partnership with CMS4Schools puts this convenience directly on the platforms schools already rely on, helping ensure students are ready to learn on day one.”
The integration allows schools to display retail-connected supply lists right on their school or district websites and apps, making it easier than ever for families to find their child’s classroom list and shop in just a few clicks. No more hunting through flyers or wandering store aisles, just fast, accurate, and easy back-to-school prep.
“Our mission is to make communication and connection easier for schools and families,” says Lisa Gutknecht, Director at CMS4Schools, CESA 6. “Adding TeacherLists to our platform is a natural extension of that goal, giving schools a simple, valuable tool that takes pressure off parents and ensures students are equipped for success.”
This innovative partnership will be available to schools and districts using CMS4Schools solutions in time for the 2025 back-to-school season, giving thousands of school communities an easy way to get ready for the year ahead.
