How It Works

Simple for families. Easy for teachers.

ListBee connects teachers, parents, and students so that shopping for school supplies is quick, accurate, and stress-free.

For Families

1

Find your school

Go to Find Lists and search by ZIP code, school name, or district. Results show every school that has published supply lists on ListBee.

2

Open the right list

Each school shows all its published supply lists. Pick your child's grade and teacher to see exactly what's needed — quantities, optional items, and any notes from the teacher.

3

Shop the list

Find each item at your preferred retailers in one click, so you get exactly what the teacher asked for without the back-and-forth.

For Teachers

1

Create a free account

Sign up with your school email and connect your account to your school. If your school or district isn't listed yet, you can add it during registration.

2

Build your supply list

Create as many lists as you need — one per class, grade level, or subject. Add items with quantities, mark them as optional, and include any notes that help parents shop with confidence.

3

Publish and share

When your list is ready, publish it so families can find it. Share the direct link in your class newsletter, email, or school website — families can view it without creating an account.

Common questions

Do I need an account to view supply lists?
No. Anyone can search for a school and browse published supply lists without registering. An account is only required for teachers who want to create and manage their own lists.
Is ListBee free for teachers?
Yes, creating an account and managing supply lists is completely free for teachers and schools.
How is ListBee funded?
ListBee participates in retailer affiliate programs. When supplies are purchased through links on the site, participating retailers may pay ListBee a commission, at no extra cost to the shopper. This is how ListBee stays free for teachers and families.
Can I save a list to come back to later?
Yes. Use the share button on any published list to copy the link. Bookmark it in your browser or save it to your phone — the link will always take you back to the same list.
What if my school isn't on ListBee yet?
Any teacher can add their school when they register. If you're a parent, ask your child's teacher to sign up — it only takes a few minutes and is free.
