Thank you note/bribery

[Deleted]

Maybe i'm over thinking this....

I writing a thank you note to DS's teacher. I'm planning on putting a $25 target card inside.

I was going to close my thank you note with something like "fingers crossed DS2 and DS3 get you too"....

but I don't know if that is inappropriate given that I'm putting a gift card inside too.

She doesn't get to choose her students, right? I wouldn't think it was bribery.

I think it's fine but I'd consider changing the message a bit. Something like:

Ms. Jones,
Thank you so much for Child 1's great experience in your class. S/he had a wonderful school year. I hope my other kids are just as lucky to get to have you as a teacher one day.

don't sweat it. in our district the teachers don't choose the kids, it's a group decision. we can request that it happen but slipping one person a couple of bucks isn't going to cut it.
