I still have a thank you note on my fridge from a student from a few years ago (she was a freshman, and she is now a senior). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/additional-teacher-gift#post-1972611 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 14:02:36 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1972611@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Smurfette: they do have a fridge in the classroom, but since the eggs are so fresh, they can stay at room temp for several days :wink: </p> <p>Good idea about the note! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/additional-teacher-gift#post-1972606 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:57:37 +0000 Smurfette 1972606@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Something sweet maybe!</p> <p>I would just worry about the transport and keeping cold of the eggs. </p> <p>We give a class gift card but I am going to give the teachers some sweets I make each year. Along with a nice note about how much we appreciate them and all they do for R. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/additional-teacher-gift#post-1972601 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:53:47 +0000 Mrs. Lion 1972601@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I think you could go either way. I think the egg idea is cute :) Consumables are always okay. Or you could just write a thoughtful note...those always meant a lot to me. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/additional-teacher-gift#post-1972597 Fri, 05 Dec 2014 13:51:45 +0000 mrs. tictactoe 1972597@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I am a room parent at Liam's preschool. They have decided to collect money and divide it evenly among all the teachers and staff for their holiday gifts. I'm assuming they will just give them each a check. They said we can also do a separate personal gift if we want, but I'm torn. As a teacher, the last thing I need is more junk. I most appreciate gift cards, but since we are already contributing to a monetary gift, I don't want to get the teachers additional gift cards. </p> <p>The only idea I have is giving them some eggs from our backyard chickens with cute packaging and a punny label about them being egg-cellent teachers. Should I do that or just skip it? </p>
