OP here, the gift is from the entire class, regardless of whether one contributed.

Yes - take the high road here.

Here's a question - do you make it from the class if only one or two families contributed?

"Thank you for all your hard work. Enclosed is something so you can give yourself a treat! Enjoy your winter break."

I would definitely say "Thank you for all your hard work" in there somewhere if you can...

Maybe to PPs message add "Thanks for everything you do for our children." Is it a Christmas card because everyone in the class celebrates Christmas? Maybe call it a holiday card and say seasons greetings?

I don't think it has to be very long. How about: "Thank you from the whole class for a great first semester! The kids are enjoying learning with you. Have a relaxing break and happy new year."

This is a 3rd grade class. I am the room parent. Please help me write a Christmas message to the teacher from the class.
So it can't be personal about my child, I just need something to write on a card to put with the (sadly) small gift card that
parents were able to donate.

I also have to write something for the special ed teacher and the para-educator who are in the room full time.

Any help will be truly appreciated. ( I also write letters to my child's teachers, therapists, etc, but they are of a more personal nature.)
