40 Christmas Messages For Your Teacher

It’s Christmas card season, and here I am staring down a blank card for my kid’s teacher, trying to figure out what the heck to say.

I mean, what’s the right message? “Thanks for taking my kid off my hands for seven hours a day”? “You’re a saint for not returning my calls about that spelling test”? “Thanks for not revealing that you know I was totally bluffing on ‘bring homemade cupcakes’ day”?

Writing a holiday message for a teacher is like a weird mix of gratitude, apology, and desperate plea to keep them on your side—because let’s face it, they hold the keys to peace, sanity, and possibly my child’s future.

So here I am, trying to come up with a Christmas card message that’s not too cheesy, not too weirdly personal, and somehow manages to say, “Hey, I respect you, I’m grateful for you, but I won’t be that parent who makes this a four-page letter.”

If you’re in the same boat, get comfy. I’ve got some ideas that’ll have your kid’s teacher laughing, tearing up, or at least thinking, This parent seems mostly sane. 

Let’s do this!
