[quote=Anonymous]At our school, the parents contribute to one pool across all classrooms and the gift is a check. One person collects all the money (cash, check, venmo, paypal, whatever) and then writes the checks to each teacher. The parents in the classroom all write on one card for each teacher, and include the check. (not all parents remember to write on the card, but the teachers know the gift is from the parents, and assume that all give money. How much each family gives is private and that's best - some can afford way more money than others! Most parents don't do anything in addition - the teachers really appreciate the cash at this time of year. The reason it's done this way is that the teachers in the classrooms with fewer children wouldn't get as large a gift OR those parents might feel they need to give a larger gift than they are comfortable with. The parents value all teachers equally, so this is what's done at our school. It works really well. [/quote]
