Case: Receiving Gifts
Are we to receive monetary gifts from parents? What if a parent gives you $100 just because. What are you suppose to do?
We have all received gifts from parents at some point in the school year; Christmas gifts, Birthday gifts, and teacher appreciation gifts. What is the limit of receiving gifts? Is this a breech in the code of ethics to receive such a gift? What should you do?
Solution: (Rates are posted for this solution!)
You should know your state's code of ethics when it comes to gifts.
Most states say that there should be no exchange of funds for the following:.........., and most states are very similar.
You should also set expectation for parents at the beginning of the school year not give gifts if it makes you uncomfortable. |
