[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It's true that a few parents give gifts despite the letter that goes out each winter season asking for toy donations in the box in the dining hall, but most parents abide by the request. A few who have given extravagant gifts have actually embarrassed their children because the gifts became public knowledge and the kids all talked about the gifts. One parent told me she likes to donate money to the annual fund in honor of her child's teachers at the end of the year (when the teacher no longer grades her child's work), but to me that still seems like blatant kissing-up and I could not do that. [/quote] How is that a kiss-up? I would be honored if a family did that for me as a teacher. They work their butts off and some personal appreciation goes a long way. [/quote]
