My niece will begin her career as a teacher this fall....teaching 4th grade at a Catholic School in the diocese of Wichita. When my wife and I asked her what we could get her as a gift she mentioned that something religious for her classroom would mean more to her coming from us since I am a Permanent Deacon and can bless the item before gifting it to her. I am honored that she feels that way.....but what would be a good gift for us to get for her?? A crucifix comes to mind immediately, but I suspect that the classroom will already have one of those.
Thanks to all for any suggestions!!

What about an image of Our Lady Help of Christians? Her advocacy is much needed these days.

Kids that age would likely be interested in the life of soon-to-be St Carlos Atticus - a nice framed image and maybe copies of this good graphic novel about him:
