So there were a lot of responses to my last post, I ended up talking to the director as she had mentioned having a binder of staff's likes/dislikes/preferences. I was able to look through the binder as they put it out for parents to look through. In it specifically lists gift preferences and the teachers mark if they prefer it as gifts or if they do not. Some examples on there were gift cards, lotions, scents, homemade foods, plants, and chocolates. I believe there were a couple others but I can't recall what else.
They also had an allergy section, a dislike section, and a list of favorites such as stores, restaurants, type of food, candies, preferred flavors (ex peanut butter), scents they like, favorite colors, their initials, etc.
So I was able to consult that and decided to move forward with my plan for homemade goods since all of the teachers marked they like homemade foods.
Not an exciting update, but it was helpful to have this binder of specifics so I didn't have to ask each teacher individually.
