    Your question is not clear.   Are you a teacher?   There is an educator deduction for teachers who purchase classroom supplies.

     

    TEACHER EXPENSES

    Go to Federal>Deductions and Credits>Employment Expenses>Teacher (Educator) Expenses

     

    https://www.irs.gov/taxtopics/tc458

     

    If that is not your situation----why are you purchasing teacher supplies?  Are you doing home schooling?  Please explain.
