Do you tip all junior high teachers? 7th grade DD has six teachers. Do I need to tip her math teacher, for example, who comes every day and DD likes but is one of six?

If you're spending the $25-35 anyway on a book, they would probably appreciate the cash more.

You don't need to do anything. Do what works for you. It's thoughtful of you to send mm even without a check.

I taught 7th grade English as part of a team. I would say half gave cash. But it was less than when I taught a younger grade and was the only English teacher.

You can but totally don’t have to. I used to give small gift cards to teachers. Six teachers? I don’t know if I’d give all. I honestly think they’ll be grateful for your mishloach manos. Cash to rebbeim. (Kids are older now, thankfully past that stage.)
