[quote=Anonymous]i throw away pretty much everything besides personal cards or notes from students and gift cards. For stuff like knick knacks, candles, mugs, paperweights...I usually keep them around my desk at school until the end of the year then throw them out. For homemade food or other perishable items (I always get at least one of those cookie mix or soup mix things in a Mason jar), I either put them in the teacher's lounge for other teachers to take if they want or I throw it away. Even store bought food I don't keep. It too goes to the teacher's lounge or [i]maybe[/i] I'll bring it home to my husband and kids if it looks really yummy. I always, always appreciate the thought that students and parents put into their gifts but really, I do not want gifts unless it is a personal note or a gift card.[/quote]
