[quote=Anonymous]I am guessing the change from relying on classrooms to provide the gift cards for their specific teacher comes from the fact that the participation is often disproportionate- you usually get a lot of participation (and therefore a much more lavish gift) in the younger grades - the more senior grades often participation for donations is far lower and therefore the teachers may not get the same level of "appreciation" gift. Additionally, the staff at all the schools really do quite a lot for the students - it's a joint effort between custodial staff, specials teachers (enrichment activities AND the various therapy teachers etc.) and the front office staff (especially the clinic team) to keep the school running smoothly for our students. I am all for making sure that the teachers and staff alike are all treated equally in terms of showing our appreciation for their hard work all year long - even if that means that I won't be purchasing a gift directly for my students' teacher, but instead contributing to a collective gift for all.
