[quote=Anonymous]Doesn't seem odd to me. I would require my kid to bring their own anyway, who wants to use something that's been in someone else's ears? School also requires kids to bring their own supplies for everyday use, such as pencils and folders and the like. I'm not sure how this is different. If your concern is for families who cannot afford the expense, schools and PTAs usually have funds for students whose families genuinely cannot afford supplies or fees for portions of the instructional program (i.e. testing fees at the high school level, field trip fees in elementary and middle school, etc) or information about how to obtain needed supplies free of charge. I'm sure if your concern is related to a financial hardship arrangements can be made with the school.[/quote]
