Anyway, I got an idea from this really cute shirt of French Fry's (from Delias.com):
For $70, we were able to make 60 teacher & staff gifts for French Fry's school. I feel better about spending the money when it goes towards supplies that the school could really use. Each teacher/staff member got a box of Ticonderoga #2 pencils with a card that said "Our pencils are #2, but our teachers & staff are #1." It would have looked cuter tied up in a cello bag with a ribbon, but I was trying to save money (and also make one less trip to the store).
Anyway, our teachers loved the gift. I know many of you are also involved in PTA, so please feel free to use the idea! I will post more ideas as we get closer to Teacher Appreciation Week.
