[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]As a specialist teacher, I am usually appreciative of anything... except cheap lotions that end up actually drying my hands out. Gift cards and notes from student are awesome. As a parent, I have trouble drawing a line at where to stop giving gifts for all the adults that help my children. I can’t afford to even get $10 giftcards for all of them. [/quote] The money part is a big issue as we have a SN child who has multiple staff helping directly and indirectly. I'm doing gift cards for the 4 main and a small token gift for the rest. It still adds up.[/quote] PP here. Yes, we have a SN preschooler and with the teachers, aids, therapists, bus drivers & aids... and then our ES age child’s teacher and bus driver (and he likes giving the specialists gifts, too), it just gets to be a lot.[/quote] I wasn't even including the outside therapists. :) I drive my kid so that's a non-issue but there were two teachers, one student teacher and 3-4 aides and the teacher demanded that everyone get the same, so it really added up. [/quote]
