In 1985, Deborah Ockrim wanted to make use of her experience as a former CPS teacher - and now parent - to reach out to others.

Hailing from a family that owned their own business, she envisioned that opening an educational supply store would be the very best venue in which to showcase her talents.

Her young son, Michael, would often spend time at the store on weekends. Throughout the years, Deborah took him to trade shows, affording her an opportunity to view products through the eyes of a child.

Michael, now a father himself, is the founder and president of Chicago School Supply, LLC. This business venture services many communities within the Chicago Public School system, as well as school districts across North America, Western Europe and Asia.

 

Chicago School Supply specializes in working with select programs and learning areas. As an example, many Title I-V programs, both in Chicago and throughout the Midwest, use Chicago School Supply to fulfill their learning materials and equipment needs. Visit our website ChicagoTitleI.com.

Chicago School Supply also provides a Professional Development series for teachers and administrators in a variety of subject areas and levels. It also developed the free resource, ChicagoScienceFair.com, for teachers to post information about their upcoming science fairs, as well as share information with fellow educators and students.

There is the locally famous Science Fair Buffet® which offers students the materials needed to display award-winning science fair projects. Visit our free Science Fair community online at ScienceFairSanity.com
