[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The "bring 6 cut flowers" thing is so freaking annoying. Of course they have that day in the middle of the week, so WOH parents have to find a time to run out to a store on a weeknight and pick up flowers. I feel like this whole teacher appreciation week is like an obstacle course that the room parents and PTA folks set up for the rest of us. I would much rather be required to donate $20 and be done with it. [/quote] I would guess that many people would be offended if they were asked to donate $20, and many would be unable. Our school does not ask for flowers, but I don't think it's that hard to do. I don't see why you couldn't pick them up on the weekend and keep them in water. Your child could help pick out the flowers the teacher would like the most. Or go to a PTA meeting and express your frustration, or email someone on the PTA with your alternate suggestions. [/quote]
