do you give a gift to the main office at your child's elementary
school? Like cookies or bagels or something?

It's funny. I was just thinking about this.
I'm going to send something in January/February as a "just because". My sense is they are inundated with gifts at this time of year.

No...you have to draw the line somewhere, KWIM?

I should add that I only consider doing something for our main office because they make being a parent at my elementary school so much easier.
They go above & beyond IMO.
If your office doesn't, then yes I'd draw the line.

My principal was very good to my son this year.

Re: do you give a gift to the main office at your child's elementary
I send a cookie basket for Christmas and an Edible Arrangement in June.
There are 2 reasons:
1. I figure that takes care of the special area teachers, reading teachers and after care people I don't buy gifts for.
2. One of my kids is a bit of a PITA so they earn it for dealing with him!

Yes...they are nice in the office so I made a tray of chocolate covered goodies and they were very appreciative. They don't get a lot of gifts from what I've heard. They tend to be the forgotten bunch.

that's a good idea. My mom worked in an elem school main office and would come home with ore goodies than we could eat.
