Our Services
Higher Learning Supply Company is committed to excellence in customer service. As a family owned company, we pride ourselves on working closely with our customers to ensure their needs are met. Our professional, courteous staff is always ready to listen to the needs of the schools we service and the students we help on a daily basis. Our open availability allows you to pick up the phone and speak directly to the people who impact the daily operations at your school’s bookstore. HLS will do everything to make your school feel more like a valued partner than just another customer.
We believe that a store’s success is not only attributed to having the right ‘stuff’ but also to having the right ‘staff’. To that end, we hire the best people with customer service experience so that each student gets the special attention they deserve. Higher Learning Supply Company’s regional store manager has extensive retail experience and brings a wealth of knowledge right to your store. When not directly involved with customers, store staff are continuously attending to all the details, such as folding clothing and dusting shelves, restocking, etc. and just overall maintaining the quality image and reputation that is critical to Higher Learning and the school’s success.
ContactWe custom build a user-friendly online store for each school, making it easier for busy students, alumni, and parents to make worry-free purchases in a secure environment. Our web design team photographs each product, and then uploads the product images and descriptions as they arrive in the store. Product availability is kept up-to-date daily. A key component of the exceptional customer service for the online store is that all inquiries are answered online within hours.

Testimonials
Higher Learning Supply Company is very responsive to student needs and tastes. The staff is always welcoming and friendly and kids are thrilled with the selection of clothing and convenience store items available and with the extended hours of operation as well. Our book rushes and book buybacks are smoother and more efficient than they have ever been. Kudos to the HLSC team!
Higher Learning Supply Company has been a valuable partner to Hotchkiss. HLSC understands the unique culture of a boarding school. Our needs often change on a dime and HLSC is nimble enough to adapt to our needs. Pete and the rest of the crew are proactive and stay ahead of potential issues such as the recent supply chain shortages. Even during the universal staffing shortages, our store was always staffed with great employees. Our campus store runs smoothly and efficiently thanks to HLSC.
