Through The Exchangeree, The Education Foundation collects school supplies and other donations year-round from area businesses, organizations, and individual supporters. BCPS educators can register to pick up donated supplies – in a socially distanced environment – on specific days and times. All full-time BCPS teachers, school counselors, social workers, school psychologists, and pupil personnel workers are eligible to register.
