Are there seriously people out there who think the teachers who educated your kids all year deserve a $25 or less gift?

$25 is perfectly fine to spend on a gift. I don't understand how you think that it's not unless you lived in some kind of weird, uber-privileged alternate universe.

If my DC's teachers were Jews I would buy Chunnakah gift card.

Too late! And I don't know which ones are Jewish, anyhow, so will let room mother control and decide with a year-end gift.

I have always given $25 gift cards. I have three kids with 2 teachers each. I agree with Affluenza poster.

I think a $25 limit is perfectly reasonable, and I think many parents would welcome a clear policy.
