CESA Purchasing Announces Partnership With The Discovery Source

CESA Purchasing is happy to share that The Discovery Source, an early childhood solutions provider, is now a registered Vendor Partner. The new partnership through CESA Purchasing further stretches early childhood education budgets through high-quality materials, supports, and resources.

The Discovery Source’s solutions support educators and families in strengthening children’s social-emotional and cognitive skills during early childhood. They also partner with companies and organizations such as Brookes Publishing and the Pyramid Model Consortium to provide additional supplies and frameworks to meet the needs of all those involved in educating young children.

The Discovery Source’s available offerings, detailed in their 2023 digital catalog, cover activities in both English and Spanish. Items include The Calming Kit, a way for children to develop strategies for regulating emotions, Pyramid Model Classroom Tool Kits for understanding how actions affect others, and many more research-based resources.

"With how important the first five years of life are for child development, we want Wisconsin to have the best teaching materials," said Meghan Cropp, Partnerships Manager for CESA Purchasing. “The Discovery Source gives educators the tools to develop social-emotional learning at an affordable price, with an added value you can only find through CESA Purchasing.”

“The Discovery Source listens to voices in the field and actively seeks opportunities to work directly with educators to create and customize social-emotional solutions that deliver value on a personal level,” said Jared Jones, Regional Sales Manager for The Discovery Source.

With this vendor partnership, purchasers can choose a free book set, an approximate $40-$50 value, for every $500 spent. Those interested in learning more can visit cesapurchasing.org/the-discovery-source or contact Jared Jones at Jared@thediscoverysource.com or (262) 395-6291.
