[quote=DC_Teacher]My school does not have anything like a teacher appreciation week so I can only speak hypothetically. I would consider it to be a nice gesture, but not necessary. I have appreciated all of the following from parents: -Praise given to administration about my teaching -Sincere and frequent thank yous -Occasional treats - ie one mom brought pizzas for us for lunch one day, another brought bagels for us one morning -Replenishing of supplies they know we need - ie hand sanitizer -A little gift bottle of lotion from one grandparent. Not that I needed the lotion but it was just a thoughtful out of the blue gift. I work really really really hard as a teacher so these small thank yous mean a lot to me. I wouldn't turn my nose up at a TA week, but it would be awkward if I felt like people were only doing it because they had to. I'd love it if I felt like some of my parents were happy to have the opportunity to formally thank me. [/quote]
