[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]We think you’re underpaid and want to give you money to help make up the gap.  But it’s tacky/not acceptable to give you cash so we give you gift cards.  We make crazy salaries for doing far less actual work than you do, so please, just take our money.  [/quote]

Different teacher here. This teacher is not the majority. I appreciate any token of thanks. I think most people know how hard it is to be a teacher monetarily in this area. I give gift cards to my son’s daycare teachers. I am just as happy with a thoughtful card which I save. I think it is the thought that counts. [/quote]
Yes, this. And of course you write thank you notes OP![/quote]

No. You definitely don’t have to write thank you notes for the gift cards. The gift cards are a thank you note from the family.[/quote]

It’s incredibly rude not to [b]at the very least [/b]send a thank you note if you’re receiving a gift card.[/quote]

At the very least send a thank you note? Are you for real? Your HS teacher has just under 150 students. If even a third of their students bring a card/gift you expect them to send thank you note to each family? Go to SIS, get the email address for the parents, write a personal note for each? And that is the least you expect? For each thank you card? Or only for gift cards because we should value them more than the thank you card that doesn’t have money attached to it? Don’t you see how absurd this is? Please, keep your money!![/quote]
