Knox County Schools Teacher Supply Depot

About Us

The Teacher Supply Depot is a collection center for donated new classroom materials provided free of charge to teachers, teaching assistants, and other school personnel in Knox County Schools. Our goal is to help reduce educators' out-of-pocket expenses. We currently serve 7900 school personnel each year.

How to Help

Volunteering your time on depot shopping days is a great way to support your fellow teachers. High school students can receive volunteer credit hours for programs such as Tennessee Promise and documentation for college applications.

Donations can be delivered on Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. It is recommended that you call the Teacher Supply Depot at (865) 470-0750 before delivering. Monetary donations are greatly appreciated, as they help us to increase the number of educators we serve each year.
