I'd like to send an email to my sister's guidance office. Is it appropriate to call teachers 'you guys'?
does it seem rude?

"You guys" is casual, if you want to be formal I would not use it.
"You," "You all," or "All of you" would be good formal ways to say the same thing.
For example: "Thank you for your hard work" (you/your is plural here)
I would only say "Thank you guys for your hard work" to friends and peers.
