[QUOTE="civicmindedex79, post: 519585, member: 2024"] So two kids (stepkids that are like my own) here and this is the first year I have really been in on the info for what it actually takes to send them back to school. Basically like others have said general consumables are $100-$150/per kid. What has surprised me is we have one involved in the high school band. They pay around $260 in fees (attempt to offset with selling fundraiser crap) and then they announce one week before school starts back they have decided to take a band trip to Atlanta and will be an additional $400. Also if I understand correctly still have uniform fees to pay on top of all of this once they decide what uniforms they want. My whole point to this is that I was surprised and wonder alot how single parents with a couple of kids make it and pay this. I asked the question in general to the kid "what happens if someone doesn't pay for the band trip"? She said "Ah the school always picks it up and everyone goes no big deal." So I guess this is a good thing but what just keeps everyone from saying they can't afford it and also I am sure the more that take advantage of this the more the fees will be next year. Just seems strange to me. [/QUOTE]
