Principal Card Ideas
School Principals’ Day is every May 1st. To help you celebrate the principals you know, I’ve created Principal Card Ideas that are on the humorous side! But don’t limit yourself to just one day! If you notice something good, write a message and send it to your kids’ principal. They always hear the bad, so make an effort to notice the good and acknowledge it!

Looking for ways to thank teachers? These Teacher Appreciation Popcorn Tags make a quick and easy gift. You can also print these Printable Teacher Appreciation Cards, or help your kids get creative with Teacher Appreciation Cards To Color, or this All About My Teacher Appreciation Coloring Page Printable.

- Bone Folder – A Bone Folder helps you score and create a professional crease. I have this exact one, and it has been a great investment! You could also use the dull edge of a butter knife.
- Scissors or Paper Cutter – Scissors will work just fine, but for a super straight cut, you may want to invest in a paper cutter. You will find yourself using it over and over and over!

- Envelope – Envelopes are optional, depending on your preference. These Principal Thank You Cards fit in a standard A2 envelope.
