The 5 Best Bags for Teachers Who Want to Keep It Together

This is the perfect tote bag for teachers who take their laptops to and from work each day. It’s got tons of side pockets to keep your pens, keys, and other must-haves organized and easy to find. Plus it comes in 5 colors, including a super cute plum.

A couple of my favorite things about this teacher tote bag are that it’s waterproof and features an external USB charger to make it easy to keep your phone battery at 100%. The shoulder strap is super comfy, and the seller will replace the bag free if anything happens to it. That makes this tote bag a winner!

I love how professional and stylish this bag looks! It comes in over 15 colors, and they all look like something you could carry around outside of school. Like many of the other bags I mention in this post, this one has a 15.6-inch padded laptop pocket to protect your computer.

With over 500 5-star ratings, this tote bag is definitely well-loved and will last you for years to come whether you stay in the classroom, make the transition to coaching, or even become an administrator.

While this is the most expensive (and least cute) option on the list, this is a great bag for itinerant teachers who travel between different campuses or move to many classrooms on campus. 

If you’re looking for a functional bag that’s also fashionable to carry, this is the one for you. This adorable briefcase comes in 5 colors and has a detachable bow accent. This bag has a large capacity and is big enough for a 15.6-inch laptop and all the papers you might be dragging home to grade. Plus the adjustable shoulder straps make it more comfortable to carry, even when it’s stuffed full. 

There are numerous interior and exterior pockets on this leather tote. These are perfect for organizing all the essentials and include a large core compartment, two smaller slip pockets, a zipper pocket, a padded compartment with a closure to protect laptops, a front open pocket, and a back zipper pocket for your keys.

This amazing teacher tote bag comes in a ton of fun styles and has 6 side pockets to keep all your teacher junk organized and easy to find. 

I love that it has such a large capacity. You can easily add a file organizer inside this bag for things like your lesson plans and those stacks of papers that like to travel from school to home and back again.

As the name implies, the top of this canvas tote bag zips closed making it next to impossible to spill the contents all over your car as you pull into the parking lot. I got one of these as a gift from a friend several years ago, and it is one of my go-to bags for keeping everything together because it is so easy to grab and go.
