Welcome to The Frugal Teacher!

I am a first year kindergarten teacher who graduated from UNC Chapel Hill in 2008. When I began teaching, I realized just how easily I could spend my ENTIRE check on my classroom. After extravagant spending, I knew I had to do something! I started thinking of the best ways to save money without jeopardizing the quality of my teaching. After months of implementing my plan, I have ended up here! I hope to share my ideas with all of my fellow teachers out there! Check in regularly for money saving tips, classroom ideas, frugal art activities, cute projects, and more!
