We've given the teachers gift cards so they can purchase what they need. If I give a gift card, it's usually generic that they can use anywhere.
Kind of off topic, but don't the SCHOOLs buy the supplies for the students? Isn't there a budget for every classroom for construction paper, pencils, pens, etc. ?
