[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Breakfast, gift cards. Whatever we did, it doesn't compensate for the average of $700 per year of their own money that teachers spend on their classrooms (national average figure). Most of my upper middle class professional friends (who earn way more than teachers) can barely handle their own children and would dial 911 after 15 minutes in charge of 20 five year olds, so I wouldn't begrudge the teachers.[/quote] AMEN! I am not a teacher. But regarding the teachers spending their own money on classroom supplies, this is why our PTA has increased the amount we give teachers for classroom supplies and decreased the amount we spend on gifts, events, school logo clothing for teachers etc. We think the classroom money is better for the teachers and better for the kids.
