Custom teacher appreciation gifts are thank-you items that a school, PTO or district brands with its logo and orders in bulk for the teachers and staff it wants to recognize. This page gathers custom teacher gifts and personalized teacher gifts that get used all year, from apple awards and insulated drinkware to totes, journals and treat boxes, so one order can cover a whole faculty.
Teacher appreciation gift ideas people keep
Apple awards are the classic. The optical crystal apple paperweight comes in three sizes, from 2.375 in to 3.5 in, with a deep etch on the front. The beveled acrylic apple award with an easel pin is made for teachers and takes laser engraving or full color printing on the back. See more custom paperweights.
Everyday carry earns its place in a classroom bag. A stainless steel tumbler or a ceramic coffee mug handles the morning coffee, the insulated lunch bag holds a packed lunch, and a tote bag carries papers home. The commuter gift set pairs a 20 oz stainless tumbler, which holds drinks cold for 12 hours or hot for 8, with a candy cube in one box.
Classroom and desk gifts suit teachers who write a lot. The journal with an upcycled apple skin cover has 100 lined pages and an elastic pen loop. The school kit packs pencils, a pen, an eraser and a 6 in ruler in a zippered pouch with space for a school logo.
How to choose one gift for the whole staff
Bulk teacher appreciation gifts are easiest when you pick one useful item for every teacher, and the best teacher appreciation week gift ideas add a step-up award for a teacher of the year or a retiring colleague. Think about who else is on the list: aides, office staff and the front desk are often thanked with the same tumbler or tote in a different color. A treat box from our food and candy gift boxes suits a staff lounge, and our custom gift sets bundle a mug, a journal or a tumbler into one present. Use the same logo on every piece for a matching set of school swag and merch.
