[quote=Anonymous]I'm not a teacher, but the idea of a gift of supplies or musical instrument for the school seems like a school gift to me...not a teacher gift. I think a teacher gift should be personal, and something a teacher should get to use on him or herself outside of the classroom. Otherwise, it's a class gift, and may as well be given to the school and not an individual. I'd give a small (yes, even $10) gift card to Starbucks, a little lunch restaurant you know they like, Target or something like that. If you're really a big spender, I'd give a gift certificate for a spa or a hotel chain or a popular restaurant so they they can indulge and spend some time relaxing. And if you or the school is seriously uptight about gifts, you can just give a Target gift card and say "you buy so much for the kiddos...so here, and thanks." Of course, I'd include a picture or card from a child if they are young. [/quote]
