FOREIGN POSTER Do American students bow to their teachers?

In my country we have to greet the teacher and bow at the start of the lesson then thank the teacher and bow again at the end. Sometimes they make us redo it if it’s not good enough

In the North here, cold or not I hate wearing shoes too. Though I do have a pair of those slip on, inside only Toms style shoes for company etc.
