[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Oh, sweet summer child, welcome to the world of private school gifting, where no gift is too extravagant, and anything less than perfection is basically an insult. Yes, gift cards are nice, but they must be presented in a handcrafted card made of imported paper, ideally with a heartfelt note written in calligraphy.
Remember, in private school, this isn’t just about gratitude; it’s a competitive sport. The goal is to subtly outdo every other parent while pretending you didn’t even try. Good luck, and may your AmEx never decline.[/quote]
This has never reflected our experience in 14 years of private school with our child. But if that’s how you like to roll, enjoy. [/quote]

Ah, yes, 14 years of private school. Thank goodness you mentioned it! I’m sure everyone reading this was on the edge of their seats, just dying to know exactly how long you’ve been in the elite private school club. Fourteen years is truly the perfect amount of time to let everyone know you’ve been paying private school tuition without sounding too nouveau riche or suspiciously old money.

It’s honestly inspiring that you’ve been sitting on this golden nugget of information, waiting for just the right moment to drop it in a teacher gift thread. Bravo. Your restraint is admirable, and your 14 years of gifting expertise will surely guide us sweet summer children to greatness.[/quote]
