[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Public charter and we give $50. I'm also a teacher and would ask people to PLEASE not send cookies, chocolate or Starbucks gift cards. In my case, most of it ends up at homeless shelters because I realistically can't eat that much. I know the recipients are happy, but it can be a lot of time and energy to try to unload this stuff or risk spoilage. [/quote] Agreed. I am by no means ungrateful and write thank you notes to all the students, but I travel at Christmas and most of these gifts just can't get used in my home. I disagree about the Starbucks cards though. I love those!! Even our non-coffee drinking teachers enjoy the cold drinks there. Our school asks the parents for $40 dues at the start of the year. That pays for all class parties, a group gift for myself, our aide and specials teachers at Christmas and end of the year and other miscellaneous things.[/quote]
