It was kind of a lot but I’m in NYC where you have to kiss ass in preschool. So annoying. I really hope we get into universal pre-k next year. It will alleviate so much stress and money.</p> <p>And yeah that made me think of all the other staff. In total:<br /> - principal<br /> - 2/3s coordinator<br /> - assistant principal<br /> - receptionist (2)<br /> - janitors (2)</p> <p>Teachers were covered by the parents slush fund as a group gift. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/do-you-give-a-christmas-gift-to-the-preschool-principal#post-2792101 Fri, 15 Dec 2017 10:46:17 +0000 Mrs D 2792101@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I do a small gift to our director and AD (like nice hand lotion, or soap).</p> <p>I also do bagels for the whole center.

She's very friendly and I like her a lot, so I was thinking about getting her something small too. But then if I give her a gift, does that mean I should also give something to the assistant principal and the other office lady? I'm not sure where to draw the line. </p>
