[quote=Anonymous]DH is a teacher in a private school. The parents have put together a system in which all money is put into a pool and then divided equally among all teachers and I think staff. Then he will usually get a few gifts cards from especially appreciative family (1 kid who he worked super extra to help after an illness, for ex.) or something special from an international student. He is significantly underpaid for his qualifications and supplements his income in other ways accordingly. He teaches because he loves it and we understand it's a lower paying option, especially in private school. We also really appreciate the couple hundred extra $ at the holidays and it really helps us to be able to put some presents under the tree for the kids. Any bookstore gift cards go to get a few things for us. He loves coffee so SB gift cards also welcome!

So from a teacher family, thank you all so much for your thoughtful gifts at the holiday. They mean a lot to us and are very helpful in making our family able to celebrate the holidays without putting everything on the credit card. For my kids' teachers, I donated to the general fund as requested that was spread out over the whole school's teachers ($10), gave bottles of wine to classroom teachers (who indicated that they enjoy that), and gave a little something to each of the extras, crossing guard, security guard, office people. I'm very appreciative and I hope they know it.[/quote]
