RICHMOND HILL, ON, Aug. 23, 2017 /CNW/ - This back-to-school
season Staples Canada is
celebrating teachers with its annual Teacher Appreciation Days,
which offer discounts and savings on classroom essentials for the
new school year.
"Teachers have an important role and having the right supplies
is a key factor in staying organized and connecting with students,"
said Mary Sagat, president of
Staples Canada. "We're happy to do
what we can to help equip them with the tools they need to be
successful."
Staples stores across
Canada will offer four Teacher
Appreciation Days – August 25 and 26,
as well as September 2 and 9 (in
Quebec: August 12, 19, 25 and 26). On these days,
teachers will save 15 per cent on most in-store purchases and 10
per cent on technology purchases.
According to a recent survey conducted by Staples Canada ahead of the back-to-school
season, teachers plan on spending 29 per cent more on classroom
supplies over last year. The annual Teacher Appreciation Days at
Staples reflect the company's
long-standing commitment to supporting education and is part of an
ongoing effort to recognize the importance of educators in the
lives of Canadian students.
