We all know teachers do so much more than teach our kids how to read and write. They also help our kiddos grow and make sure they’re safe when we’re not around. Teacher Appreciation Week is happening May 4 – 8, 2015. Say thank you to your teacher by giving them a gift with a local twist. From jewelry to jam, and classic to quirky, we found artisan-quality, locally-made gifts (all under $15) that will show our teachers how much we appreciate them. Click through the slideshow to see what we found.

Jackie’s Jams

Does it get any more homemade than these cute jam jars? Locally made and filled with fresh fruits and packed with flavor, Jackie's Jams adds the lovely little touch of fabric swatches atop each jar. You'll find them at San Diego Whole Foods locations, at farmer's markets and online. At only $6.50 each, you'll want to stock up for your own pantry, too.
