[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]I’m teacher PP. I think it’s way more than 5%. Like seriously it might be 50%. That being said, I don’t care about teacher appreciation gifts in the slightest. I hate teacher appreciation week, I will not die if I don’t get a $20 Amazon card, please do not feel indebted to give one especially if, like the PP, you strongly dislike teachers. There’s no reason to do so. The gifts are not needed at all.[/quote] I wasn't posting just about gifts. I actually like most teachers and respect them. I am posting about the incessant requests from PTA, teachers, schools for fundraising. Yes, I will ignore these, and you should too. [/quote] That’s completely fine. I always have ignored those. I wish schools would abolish PTAs. What one school can raise and do for students based on their families’ incomes shouldn’t dictate a much better school experience than schools where families are less wealthy and can’t give or the parents actually have to work and can’t afford for the mom to hang out at the school all day pretending that volunteering and making copies is a real job. PTAs if they exist at all should have zero fundraising capabilities. No extra experiences should be doled out in schools because wealthy families pay for them. It’s deeply inequitable and wrong. [/quote] Wow. You sound so ignorant.[/quote] I am not. PTAs only widen the divide between have and have not schools. [/quote]
