We are giving cash. It feels a bit weird but way less fussy than a gift card. And kids write a nice note. 
Guys, is it ok to give $20? For cash, the extra $5s and $10s are a lot, and we give to a lot of teachers and admin, and inflation is crazy. We both got salary decreases just from inflation this year. 
Who wouldn't like a nice $20? I wouldn't say no![/quote]

This is a gift for a teacher who likely has a master's degree in their field, not a tip for the Doordash delivery person. Stick to a nice note from the student. Or a gift card. Not cash.[/quote]

100% disagree. Professional employees are given cash bonuses, not gift cards. Gift cards are some pink collar thing to denigrate the work that professionals do.[/quote]

NP. A gift from a little kid isn’t a “cash bonus” for an employee. A kid giving their teacher a gift card from Target does not denigrate the teacher’s profession. Jfc[/quote]
