This. I hate when going into the teacher’s lounge requires an exercise of willpower not to eat crap. |
| I sometimes drop off a basket of snacks for the teacher workroom, and I sometimes get $5-$10 gift cards to a coffee shop for just my kids’ teachers. |

I was a cafeteria lady. I promise you, no one cares if you mention specific people. I totally understood that as a cafeteria lady, I had zero impact on those kids' lives and never expected special recognition. Hearing "thanks everyone, but especially thank you to Mr. Larlo" wouldn't bother me. Like of course I didn't help their child as much as their teacher.
Also, we loved donuts You could also add a fruit or veggie tray for people who can't eat them. We had several staff members who were gluten-free/vegan/on diets and no one ever complained that someone brought donuts they couldn't eat.

| Just send gift cards privately to the few teachers you most want to thank. Stop the attention-seeking behavior of buying the teachers junk food. No one wants the junk food or the showing off. |
| Don’t send donuts and junk in. Adults are perfectly capable of getting their own junk food. Doing something nice means not sending in cheap garage processed food. |
| Is this FCPS? I would not get them shit. |
| Ok guys, you win. I am not sending anything. |
