[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]You sound like a nightmare of a parent. Public school, huh? Otherwise, I'd send you packing. That poor child of yours.

Very unfair, it's okay for a parent to NOT like a teacher, and NOT provide an OPTIONAL gift.   Not all teachers are wonderful, some are barely competent, and some are assholes.  Your public school comment was very rude.

To the OP, don't worry about the total..  
To be honest with you I doubt it matters how you sign the card.  The teacher has been dealing with these parents all YEAR long having to collect permission slips and other things from parents, she has a good handle on what kind of class you have.

Personally I give each teacher a $50 gift card at the end of every year, sometimes $25 at Christmas and $25 at the end of the year.  It's against the policy of our schools to collect for class gifts.  I just think of our favorite restaurant and we tip our minimum wage waiter more than that over the course of a  month.  My kids get together gift bags with a homemade card and small items like chocolate and a little gift for the teacher so even if there was a class contribution I still think I would have my kids personally give our gift from our family.

If your teacher is an asshole, I feel even more sorry for the poor child.[/quote]
