When should be teacher’s appreciation gifts given?

What is your thought on appreciating your child’s school teacher? Have you been giving gifts to teachers? If not, then is it a good idea to give the teachers a gift? Should the gifts be given when the school ends or during the teacher appreciation week or at any other time as well?

  1. When is teacher appreciation week?

  2. We gave gifts to Bhumi’s teachers typically towards the end of the school year. I do not recall ever giving gifts at other occasions though Amisha would know better.

  3. During Christmas party in the (pre)school, students did give gifts to teachers (at least in Bhumi’s school)
    As far as I remember during teacher’s appreciation week also we gave gift coupon to her class teacher directly.

  4. Kairavi’s previous school had more occassion to give gift then current one. And they used to put up Teacher’s wishlist. I would perfer to give only once either during Teacher’s appreciation week or year end. And not during x-mas. Last year in pre school, during appreciation week, one item was assinged for each day to bring like Fruit, flower, chocolate and last day was gift. We participated in four days but couldn’t get anything for last day and then gave at year end.

  5. Since no one replied to my question, I found it myself :-). Teacher Appreciation week is usually the first full week in May.

  6. We always give gift during Christmas and Teacher appreciation week. During the teacher appreciation week kids make something for each day-Card, Cookies, Nice Flower Bouquet etc.
