Students and faculty in the Hortonville Area School District recently won a truckload of school supplies worth more than $15,000 from School Specialty.
The truckload included everything ranging from general supplies to art, sports and PE equipment. It arrived at Hortonville High School in December.
HASD faculty and students took part in a School Specialty promotion that recruits students to work at their Greenville and Prospect Avenue locations during the summer months.
School Specialty is a leading provider of supplies to the pre-K through 12th-grade education market and has warehouses in the Fox Cities area.
School Specialty and their staffing partner Manpower promoted a recruitment program called “Get A Great Summer Job and Give Back.”
The company’s peak fulfillment season aligns with teachers and local student’s time off in the summer.
Each applicant recruited through the program is entered to win a truckload of supplies for their school.
HASD had 30 applicants.
Students ages 16 and older are eligible for employment opportunities at School Specialty.
Teachers and students work in their Fox Cities warehouses during the summer months creating SchoolKidz teacher-tailored supply kids, and picking and packaging supplies for customers.
