Thinking ahead to end of year teacher gifts
If your DC is continuing school during the summer, do you give end of year gifts in June or when the summer session is over in August? My DS will be in the same class with the same teachers I believe during the summer (although I have to double check that).
I have ALOT to buy for: Teacher 2 TA's 2 or 3 floaters 2 bus drivers 2 bus matrons 1 ST 1 OT 1 music teacher 1 social worker (for social skills class he still gets at Kidz)
Am I missing anyone? I just want to get a head start since it is going to get expensive

Re: Thinking ahead to end of year teacher gifts
I don't know. I gave at Christmas/Holiday time.
Now thanks to your post...I have to buy at the end of the year too.
Officially per our SD, the school year ends in June. So school over the Summer is really next year school calendar. Not sure it would help but I guess June is when I would give the gifts.

Re: Thinking ahead to end of year teacher gifts
i worked an 11 month school year. The reg year ends in June and then summer session starts. I always received gifts in June from the kids even though they stayed with me till August. I also gave them their "moving up" gifts in June at our party. I plan on doing the same for ds teachers and thanks to u have to start thinking about a gift!

Re: Thinking ahead to end of year teacher gifts
We've been doing gifts for the end of the school year, but I've noticed not everyone does. I think last year we gave out inexpensive (but nice) beach towels with a small DD gift card added for the teacher & therapists. They all seemed to like them. We always write a nice card with a pic of DS on it, too, that they all love. I can't remember what i did for end of summer... maybe I just brought in some goodies for everyone?
You guys haven't been there that long, so if you wind up doing something, don't feel like you have to go all out.

I was there all morning for our class! It was funny, his teacher actually handed out tissues before the presentation. It was so nice! I was thinking you may be there & I kept an eye out for you just in case, but I know different classes had them on different days. ONE of these days we'll see each other!
I saw TJ walking with his class last week. It looked like he was having fun

Re: Thinking ahead to end of year teacher gifts
I did it in August when he was done. I did Starbucks giftcards. They all loved that. I think i had about the same amount of people and i spent $175! It was well worth it though! If i could have did more i would have!
