If you have 40 faculty members, one gets recognized and 39 go
away wondering "Why wasn't I the one chosen? I do good
things."

This kind of thing is generally more of a morale killer than
booster.

Putting out a bowl of pretzels, or boxes of donuts for
everyone to share and giving sincere compliments to the staff
as a whole for the great work with kids is far more likely to
raise moral.
