School Pencils

School pencils are the tools of the trade for students and teachers alike. At Staples, we carry a wide variety of school pencils to suit any situation. From traditional wooden #2 pencils for standardized tests to mechanical pencils for drawing and sketching, we have the school pencils that you need to be prepared to take notes all school year long.

Wooden Pencils

For a classic look and feel, wooden pencils like those made by Papermate, Ticonderoga, and Staples' own TRU RED are the way to go. These pencils are made from natural materials, and they offer a smooth, consistent writing experience. Whether you're looking for something traditional or something with a more modern twist, we have just what you need.

#2 Pencils

For standardized tests and other high-stakes exams, #2 pencils are the way to go. These pencils have been carefully designed to meet the requirements of the testing process, and they're made from high-quality materials that ensure a clean, sharp point. Make sure to keep an extra pencil sharpener in your bag just in case, though! There's nothing worse than breaking your pencil tip in the middle of an important test.

Mechanical Pencils

If you don't want to risk multiple lead breaks while you are in the flow of work or in the middle of a test, mechanical pencils are the perfect choice. These pencils offer precision and control with the retractability of a pen, and they come in a variety of sizes and styles to suit any need. For drawing and sketching, mechanical pencils allow you to choose the exact lead size that you need for your projects and come in a variety of lead compositions. Whether you're looking for something simple or something more elaborate, you can find it in our selection of mechanical pencils.

At Staples, we carry a wide variety of school pencils to suit any need. From #2 pencils for standardized tests to mechanical pencils for drawing and sketching, we have what you need. So stock up today and be prepared for anything the school year throws your way.
