Teachers put in a lot of time and money to make sure students succeed. Buying classroom supplies can really add up, but thankfully there are resources to help. On Thursday, the PENCIL resource center will celebrate a huge milestone of giving away $20 million in school supplies to Metro teachers since it opened 18 years ago. The DG PENCIL Box in West Nashville allows teachers to come once a month at no cost and stock up on basic supplies.
