[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]To all the parents stressing about gifts.....I'm an MCPS teacher and a parent.  While our family chooses to give gifts, it is NOT an expectation...honestly!  As for "how much is enough?" if you want to give...whatever you are comfortable with...a $5-$10 gift or $25 - $50 gift.  It always makes me a little sad this time of year when these threads come up because all the teachers I know honestly do not expect anything and don't "judge" what is given.  We are too busy celebrating the chance to have a little downtime with our families!  : )

Nice little notes are very much appreciated.  Honestly, as silly as it sounds, I love the family picture holiday cards....and love when I go into other classrooms and they are displayed on the desks.  There is something very warm and personal about that.

SO....don't stress...[/quote]

I agree - DH is a teacher and while gifts are lovely, he doesn't expect them and certainly doesn't judge anyone for giving nothing, or for whatever they give.

I will say that the gifts he loves the most are the heartfelt notes of appreciation from parents (and students).[/quote]
