There was a post on here just yesterday with a really cute idea that someone did for teacher appreciation. It involved having the children provide things they here the teacher frequently say in the classroom and then doing an artistic collage in a frame.

Scrapbooks are also great and if the school doesn't do it, then have the parent group throw a little retirement party at the school some early evening.

I always thought that flying a flag over the building for a day and then framing it and presenting it to the teacher with a brass plate stating that it was flown on such and such a date in the teachers honor was a nice idea.

Does anybody have creative ideas for doing something for teachers that are retiring? Flowers seem to be the idea that everyone comes up with, but I thought for teachers that have spent over 20 years in our building, they deserve some sort of unique recognition from parents.
