Teacher gifts under $25
Teachers get a lot of mugs. The gifts they mention later are the ones that get used: good pens, a desk upgrade, a treat, or supplies they'd otherwise pay for themselves.
Every pick here sits in a catalog price range under $25, so it works for one teacher or several. The store shows the exact price.

Fair questions
How much should I spend on a teacher gift?
Whatever fits your family. A heartfelt note matters more than the price, and some schools have gift rules, so check yours first.
What do teachers actually want?
Things they use every day at school: good pens and markers, desk organizers, treats, or a gift card for supplies.
A list built for one person beats any guide.
Two minutes of taps, five picks, and reminders that land while there's still time to ship.
