We gave $100 cash to each of my daughter’s teachers. Idk what the going rate is. I thought maybe closer to $250 but who knows.

I still have $35 on a visa gift card from four years ago. It’s a nice thought but they are hard to use.


What? Just use it at the grocery store.


It’s been declined unless it’s the exact amount.

We do a gift card taped to a bag of candy or cookies.

Exactly this - nice personalized note in a holiday greeting card with an Amazon gift card inside. Feels like cash basically. We also include our family holiday card since it has pix of the kids.

Cash, for sure. Don’t feel weird about it- that’s what they want.

Just throw it on a target or Amazon gift card and use it that way.

Just give money. Some people find it weird to give money so you can give something universal, like a Target gift card.

It's our first year and it's been great! Our son is a happy and smart boy. I would appreciate any ideas for gifts for his teacher and the other 2 staff/assistants
