[quote=Anonymous]I'm grateful for the parents who organize the monetary donations. I'd rather have the teachers get something they'd like to have or a gift card to a place where they shop. The room parents go to the trouble of finding out what the teachers would really want. I wouldn't volunteer to do it and am happy there are others that do. They only ask for $10 per year for teacher appreciation. We always do handmade cards at the end of the year with a nice note. I don't see it much differently than when my employer gives holiday gifts or random other gifts (usually apparel) or lunches. Since teaching is a service profession, I would liken it to giving a nurse or doctor at a hospital a gift. Though we didn't, I have friends who gave the labor and delivery nurses a gift.[/quote]
