[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I was the original PP - I live in Arlington and I think it’s ridiculous that my son’s teacher who had a baby was gifted close to $1500 one year ($500 each for Christmas, teacher appreciation, and baby shower), but our friend who works in a high FaRMS school in Arlington gets maybe $20 if she’s lucky. Our teacher was fine, but not amazing, she simply gets a crazy bonus by virtue of landing a job in the right zip code. [/quote] FWIW I felt so much real appreciation when I worked at one of the poorest APS schools that I never cared about what the north side schools were getting. I’m now in one of the schools in the middle. My class gifts are always signed by the whole class and I have no idea who contributes. I like it that way[/quote]
