[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous] +1 Every school my kids have been at (from private preschool to public elementary) has had some sort of monetary class group gift for the teacher. This isn't some bizarre invention by rogue room parents. Some parents also contribute in their own name.[/quote] I'm in FCPS, and neither of the public elementary schools my kids have attended have had class group gifts. In private preschool, class gifts were organized by the room mom, but it was no big deal to opt out and do your own thing. They just wouldn't sign your name on the group card. That's one of the reasons why I was wondering whether it's a wealthier area vs. a poorer area thing. One of my schools is Title I, and the other one isn't, but it's still a very diverse income area with a decent number of FARMS kids. [/quote]
