12 Thoughtful Teacher Appreciation Gifts
Teacher Appreciation Week is the first full week in May each year, with the Tuesday of that week designated as Teacher Appreciation Day. However, appreciating teachers does not need to be restricted to one day or one week each year. We have plenty of options teachers are sure to love, and below are 12 of our best corporate gift ideas for teachers.
1. Calendars & Planners
Our motivational calendars are an excellent teacher appreciation gift for the classroom. Teachers often need to keep track of certain dates throughout the school year. For many teachers, having a calendar that brings joy and motivation will surely be appreciated, and it can also be a nice way to decorate the classroom.
2. Personalized Crystal Gifts
An engraved personalized gift will allow you to add a personal touch. For math teachers, a personalized crystal ruler shows students how to go old school when they need to measure something. Teachers and apples go hand in hand, so consider a unique paperweight shaped like an apple with your school's crest engraved on it.
3. Notepads
Taking notes is not just for students. Motivational notepads are a great gift for teachers who write down ideas and lesson plans. Notepads are affordable additions to any gift basket.
4. Appreciation Soup Mug & Spoon
Gifting sick teachers something to make those days a little cozier is sure to make them feel cared for. A soup mug and spoon is a great gift idea for teachers who are at home and need a reminder of why they enjoy their job.
5. Travel Tumbler
A travel tumbler helps keep coffee, tea, or any hot beverage warm on a cold day. And it can keep beverages cold during the summer, too.
6. Water Bottles
Being awesome is not hard for good teachers, and personalized water bottles are a great way to show your appreciation. This is a great gift for teachers who are active after work or want to stay hydrated throughout the day.
7. Ceramic Mugs
A mug with an inspirational message is a great option for coffee or other hot drinks. This is a great birthday gift for any teacher. Coffee mugs are a great choice because they'll feel appreciated each time they treat themselves to a cup./p>
8. Candy & Sweets
Who doesn't love sweet treats? A clear acrylic cube packed with their candy of your choice ensures they can indulge a little. Snacks are always a great way to show your appreciation!
9. Sticky Notes & Note Cubes
The world probably wouldn't be able to function without sticky notes. We carry a handy spiral-bound notebook with four different cover color options, which is emblazoned with the words: Great Teachers. Great Students. Great Schools. Inside, you'll find a handy collection of sticky notes in assorted colors. It's an inexpensive, practical gift that's sure to be appreciated!
10. Portfolios
Teachers need a handy place to store documents. There are papers to take home to grade, class preparation notes, and the like. This is another handy, practical gift that's sure to be treasured and used often. A favorite style features our classic teacher's logo, but we've got a wide variety of other options available. Even better, if you prefer, you can create your own custom cover for added personalization.
11. Power Banks
These days, what teacher doesn't rely heavily on smart devices? The problem, of course, is power. It can be inconvenient to have to recharge in the middle of the day. That's where this handy gift comes in. It gives teachers the freedom and flexibility to charge devices on the fly, and comes with a standard USB connector cable. A power bank is an incredibly handy gift for your favorite teacher.
12. Bluetooth Speaker
If your favorite teacher is an audiophile, this speaker is the perfect gift. Don't let its deceptively small footprint fool you, these speakers produce great quality sound, and being designed with Bluetooth technology, can be connected wirelessly to many devices. Best of all, they come in a variety of fun colors.
Reasons for Teacher Appreciation
In any workplace, recognition is critical for keeping employees engaged. Teachers are some of the busiest professionals around. They work with dozens of students each day and are tasked with conveying important lessons in an easy-to-understand manner.
Teacher engagement directly impacts lesson effectiveness and how receptive students are in the classroom. When you manage or work with teachers, you know how important each teacher is to the school's success. Whether you're an administrator who's interested in expressing your appreciation for the hard-working teachers on your staff or a student interested in making a good first impression, we've got plenty of teacher-centric gifts in our product lineup.
Some occasions that are great for giving teacher appreciation gifts include:
- Last Day of Summer / Welcome Back
- First Day of School

- Project Completion
- Last Day of School
- National Teachers' Day or Teacher Appreciation Week
- Gifts for Retiring Teachers
