The Story Behind Classroom+
Classroom+ was created by Stephanie Nash, the teacher behind A Touch of Class Teaching.
Stephanie has been creating resources to help teachers organize, decorate, and run their classrooms since 2012. But her journey started a few years earlier when she walked into her very first teaching job in 2009.
She arrived with one small 3-drawer Sterilite container… and that was it.
Her classroom decor consisted mostly of mismatched hand-me-downs and faded construction paper. The room didn’t feel cozy or inviting, and she quickly realized the environment was contributing to the chaos her students were feeling in their space.
She was determined to create a classroom environment that felt calm, welcoming, and beautiful. She knew that for some of her students, school might be the most peaceful place they experienced all day.
Over the years, Stephanie spent thousands of dollars buying classroom decor packages from stores. But the same thing kept happening: the decor would rip, fade, or she would simply get tired of it and end up replacing it again.
More money… on a teacher’s salary.
Then everything changed
Eventually she decided she was done spending money on decor that didn’t last.
Instead, she invested in a printer, signed up for HP Instant Ink, and began using printable classroom decor.
It was a game changer.
Why printable decor works so well
Stephanie began creating her own printable decor collections and classroom tools. Each collection was designed to help teachers organize their classrooms, create routines, and build an environment where students could thrive.
Many resources include editable text and flexible templates so teachers can customize them for their students and classroom needs.
Teachers began asking for everything in one place.
From Classroom Decor Club to Classroom+
The membership originally began as the Classroom Decor Club, focused mainly on decor themes and seasonal classroom displays.
But as the community grew, so did the resources inside. Teachers wanted more support with classroom routines, behavior systems, engagement tools, seasonal activities, and classroom organization.
Today the membership has evolved into Classroom+, reflecting the full support teachers receive inside — decor, classroom systems, engagement tools, seasonal resources, and much more.
The goal is simple: help teachers spend less time searching, designing, and recreating resources… and more time focusing on their students.
