[quote=Anonymous]I don't know if your issue is not having materials from the first day or just the idea of feeling obliged to financially contribute to the school. But FWIW, we go to a different public school and have given several hundred dollars over the course of the year. Close to $1000. Way over if you count grandparent contributions. And I bet we aren't even in the top half of givers at the school. Materials fees at the beginning of the year, then a general call for funds, then Christmas gift collections, then the auction (tix plus donations plus purchases.) And more, I'm sure. I think the constant pressure to give would be really stressful for a family without much disposable income.[/quote]
