Westborough – Staples is hosting Teacher Appreciation Day Saturday 
Aug. 20 at store locations across the country to make it easy to provide teachers the tools they need to be successful in the classroom. Each year, more than 90 percent of teachers spend hundreds of dollars of their own money on classroom materials, according to the National Education Association.
The first 100 teachers visiting Staples stores on Teacher Appreciation Day, from 9 a.m. to noon, will receive a reusable lunch bag filled with pens, eraser caps, note tabs, a one-subject notebook, glue sticks and sticky notes. Teachers will also receive a coupon sheet with great savings on classroom supplies from top brands.
Locally, Teacher Appreciation Day will be held at the Westborough-area Staples store at 18 Lyman St.
