[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I did $50 gift cards to Target + a note/card from DC for each teacher this year (just the primary ones). I will do $50 Amazon / Amex cards + note from DC at the end of the year. [b]Why in the world would I think that the teachers would want anything else? [/b] I appreciate knowing that they spend the money on supplies for the class or on themselves. Either way is a win/win.[/quote] You wouldn't it. But I think people apply the same logic they use for their family and friends on teachers. I personally wouldn't want a gift card from a loved one. But I also hope that they know me enough to give me something I really like. There is almost no chance of that happening in the 25 to 50 dollar range to get someone you don't know as well something that is universally appreciated. Hence the gift card solution. Parents, they are teachers and not your friends. Once you figure that out, you will be at peace with giving gift card. [/quote]
