Homeschool Teacher ID Cards: Get Yours Now!

By November 29, 2017March 29th, 2025No Comments

Homeschool ID cards can serve many useful purposes. Probably the one you’re most familiar with is the ability to get special teacher discounts at stores such as Office Depot, Hobby Lobby, Barnes & Noble, PBS, and many more.

These discounts come in especially handy when you’re purchasing school supplies, educational materials, arts and crafts, electronic items, and even clothing for your students!

Hotels, museums and other attractions can also give you teacher discounts with an ID. (For more information, check out Gift Card Granny’s list of 80 teacher discounts here.)
