[quote=Anonymous]Yuck. Giving a gift at first meeting is tacky and completely inappropriate. It comes across as an ingratiation gift. A small gift at Christmas is acceptable as a kind of thank you from your child/family. However, it should be $50 or less. Our school requests that parents abide by a $25 limit. Larger gifts can be given at the end of the year after grades have been turned in. You don't want to give the impression that you are trying to bribe the teacher into giving your child a better grade by giving them an extravagant gift. Teachers and admin talk, and you will be labeled as an inappropriate parent if you are giving large gifts before grades are turned in. They won't give the gifts back but they will talk about you.
