[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I look at it as reimbursing the teacher for things they buy out of pocket for the classroom vs thanking the help.[/quote]

I don’t.  If they feel they should be reimbursed then they should set up an itemized list and specify what they spent on classroom supplies and leave options for direct reimbursements. Or submit their expenses to their boss to get reimbursement. If there isn’t money in the budget, stop buying it! Kids will learn just the same.  Classrooms function (better even) all over the world with way fewer supplies and way less money spent.[/quote]

Yeah, those kids don’t need pencils or tissues! Those teachers should just have the kids write in the dirt outside and wipe their snotty noses with their sleeves. [/quote]

It isn’t the teachers’ responsibility to buy these supplies. So they should stop (both buying them and complaining about it) If they refused to buy the essentials, I guarantee the districts would buy them. [/quote]

Have you seen the tissues?  They are shitty one ply sandpaper ones. I am happy to buy Kleenex or Puffs to help stop virus spread.  [/quote]
