in the previous millennium when I was in hs we did hand out wallet size school pics to friends and teachers with notes on the back. esp in senior year.
with virtual school this year, dd has no idea whether anyone does this. she doesn’t think anyone does. somehow I think it would be a nice gesture.
No pics to teachers. We didn’t send pics to any family except the grandparents. Kids didn’t exchange pics like we did. Most have pics of their friends on their phones or social media. We didn’t even order wallet size pics.
Teachers at our school still get some from students and they still have notes written on the back. Not everyone does them, but I know several teachers who keep them and enjoy them. If there’s a special teacher - no harm, and they might like it.
Our kids graduated 2005-16. Tradition in our area is to print a few dozen and have them out at the open house on what we call the “shrine” table. Friends and teachers who want one just take one. With COVID19, open houses were drive-by in 2020 so no need for many if any.
