[quote=Anonymous]I've taught at one of the Big 3s for many years. About 20 years or so, the gift giving from students to teachers was a bit out of hand. Students would often bring in gifts that were expensive and sometimes inappropriate (bottles of champagne). Our school started to rein this in by telling parents to give more modest gifts that reflected appreciation. These included gift cards to Starbucks, Amazon, etc., but nothing above the $25 range. I don't receive as many gifts as I used to, which I'm fine with. Having said that, it is appropriate to give your DC's teachers small tokens of your appreciation if you want, including a card written by your child thanking the teacher for instruction, etc.[/quote]
