The fee depends on the value of the gift card, but mine were all under $4-5/card. Personalized, yet practical.


Practical how? As an ersatz dust pan? Just buy the teacher a $1 greeting card with nice artwork from Trader Joe's and stuff it with four rumpled dollar bills. For God's sake.

Did your teachers not teach you reading comprehension? PP said the CARD fee was $4, not that she loaded $4 on the card. For God’s sake.

Oh crap, you're right. Sorry PP. I was stuffing my face with popcorn and not paying attention.

Our principal has been clear she doesn't care what parents think.
