Love this place. Have been visiting each year to prepare my kiddo for the upcoming grade. Their inventory never disappoints and is a dependable place to source everything a kiddo needs to succeed. My personal favorite has been the reading series beginner books. A community staple

You can find anything you need for the classroom! It's all there Beautifully organized. They have it in every color and it's easy to find. Great service as well! Super kind ladies! The only reason I gave 4 outta 5 stars is that the items are much higher priced than other places. But it's so convenient to have it all in one place.

Again, my friends, do NOT patronize GW School Supply unless you have money to burn, don't care if returns are not accepted, and don't mind your credit card being charged multiple times! Customer service and fair trade are foreign concepts here!

I love this store ! This store is a heaven for those who used to love to "play school " as a child . There's everything you can imagine for your classroom here. The staff is friendly, helpful and cheerful. The staff definitely make the shopping experience that much better . There's so much to choose from here! I even see parents come in to get school supplies or learning tools for their children . Although pricier than a big box store, you'll find much more unique items here.

I have been coming to GW for 10 years now as I am a teacher. I have always had pleasant experiences with the store and staff, and have enjoyed purchasing my teacher items here. On my last visit, during Aug 2018, I spent $150 worth of items and received $15 GW cash as a result.I went back several weeks later (last week of Aug) to use my GW bucks. I was told they could not be used until September. I was highly disappointed, and quite honestly, extremely dissatisfied with a store telling me WHEN and HOW I was able to use this.GW, you had no problem taking my $150, but when I chose to use your "coupons," you decline me? Why would I need to purchase teacher supplies in September? This makes one think you are banking on the fact that most teachers will forget about using your coupon because 90% of their rooms are set up at this point.I will no longer shop here. I will purchase my items elsewhere.When there are so many more convenient ways to shop these days, I would have thought your strategies would have been more conducive to actually attracting, and maintaining, your loyal customers. Apparently not.

This is literally the only school supply store in town. I remember coming here for stuff as a kid. Im glad to see a local business doing well, years and years later. I look forward to shopping here for many years to come for my little girls. They have everything here when it comes to setting up a classroom, everything for science projects, workbooks for all grade levels, many craft products, just everything you can imagine. I came in for some wooden puzzles by Melissa and Doug brand and they had them. A great selection of them also. I also got 2 packs of flash cards and a pre k workbook for my baby girl. I had forgotten my debit card at my house and they had no problem holding my stuff for when I came back. Sweet employees too. GW School Supply, 5 stars!

I just wanted to say that I visited this store on 2/10/25 to purchase some bulletin board posters and boarders for my Sunday School classroom and I was amazed the wide variety of things they have to offer. However you want to decorate a classroom, trust me they have it. I completed my entire shopping list and even picked up some things that I didn't know I needed. I was surprised of their Christian section as well. The prices are reasonable and they had a lot of things on clearance as well. I admired the fact that the clearance items are mixed in with the regular price items, this way one person doesn't take everything when it's displayed in one section, everyone gets a chance to save depending on what you need and what section it's in, clearance is all over the store. I returned to the store today on 2/11/25 when I noticed they have a large machine to laminate posters and colorful cut outs to help save on wear and tear of your purchase and the price was outstanding. To laminate something is $1.00 per yard that is cheap considering I was at FedEx and they charge over $4.00 per yard. So glad GW School Supplies thinks about your pocket book and last but not least the staff is simply amazing and friendly. My only desire is that I wish they were a little closer in town instead of being out by Brimhall but for the prices, I can't complain it's worth the drive.

This is my 25th year teaching and even though I live out of town now, I always make it a point to stop in and get my classroom items at GW. They are the gold standard for me, and I always appreciate their selection and helpful staff. Keep up the good work!

Got school supplies. Always high prices. Especially since a lot of it still has the oriental trading tags on them. Sometimes Employees can be amazing occasionally they will ignore you But it's the only school supply store in town. If you pay cash there's a small discount sometimes
