Teacher Supplies

PTSO is working to stock my Supply Closet to help supplement your supplies outside of your Academy & Content supplies. These items include:

  • Dry Erase Markers
  • Sharpies
  • Post-it Notes
  • Pencils
  • Scissors
  • Staplers
  • and so much more

To access this, you can swing by the library and request from the circulation desk. You can also email Joyce.Claassen@mnps.org & Gillian.Hutchinson@mnps.org and we can gather supplies for you and have them ready for pick up.

Laminating Laminating

Lamination is not self-service here. All laminations will be processed through the library circulation desk. You will need to allow 48 working hours for your project to be laminated (aka 2 school days). We have had Doctorate level adults kill a laminator and printer before, please do not take offense. We need to make sure the equipment and supplies are managed efficiently.

Heat Laminator

This is the preferred method of laminating of any school materials that need to last the whole school year or longer. Is it just a display for a month or two and then you are trashing it? Then please do not laminate it. This is harmful for the environment and is costly.

  • Not for student use
  • Product width no more than 24"
  • Located in library office, please email to set up using
  • Instructions

Cold Laminator

This is the least preferred method of laminating because it is costly at $5 a yard. This is ideal for posters that need to be mounted outside for extended periods of time.

  • Not for student use
  • Product width is no more than 24"
  • Located in library office, please email to set up using

Printing Printing

Mass Printing with the Riso

We have access to a Risso. This is the perfect machine to help with printing single-sided Black inked quantities of 50+ (No color ink, but you can use colored paper)

Economical & Efficient: It uses a "master" ink film. So if you are printing 50 or 500, it uses the same amount of ink.


Double-Sided is possible, but complicated.


Perfect for Black & White Flyers, test, or forms using white or colored paper.


Not for student use. Ms. Hutchinson or myself will show you how to use this device located in the Burrolibrary Tech Center.

Color Poster Printing

Teachers requesting Posters for Instructional, Club, or Hillsboro Sports, should submit request here: https://forms.office.com/r/M2KvRN6JD2

Tips for Excellent Poster Making!


  • Create Word Document (No Size adjustment needed, I print most of my posters this way)
  • One Slide of PowerPoint can create amazing research presentation posters.
  • Canva platform makes great posters
  • I will decline printing of any poster that has not been vetted for typos & pixelated pictures.
  • I will decline printing that uses and exorbitant amount of ink. (Ink is expensive, please be mindful when creating posters)

Paper Paper

Color Paper & Cardstock

We have a controlled amount of construction paper, colored paper, & cardstock that is available. We will have quick grab access to paper if you are just needing to run 30 copies on color.

Please do not abuse the use of the paper and hoard it away like 2020 Toilet Paper. The goal is to always keep the supplies you need when you need it. Keeping it stored will avoid fading, damage, and waste.

Please email paper request when you are in need.
