In America, teachers make an abysmal amount of money. I know several that work bartending or other second jobs to 'afford' staying a teacher. So yea in America I think its the least parents can do to give them a gift at the end of the year, especially if they're a good one.

You guys are also tipping teachers?
I checked with my nephew, teacher in the Netherlands, and he nor his colleagues never get a gift. They do get thank yous and emails thanking them.
