[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]On the back to school part on the website, it says book buying. Are we expected to buy our own books? If so what is the estimated cost for a high school student? And do they allow kids to print out their own copies from online and then staple it or do you need to buy the actual book? [b]I've never been to a school where I had to buy books so I was confused.[/b][/quote]

NP - and incoming Class of '29 parent. This also surprised/shocked me, what with the cost of tuition.[/quote]

This is standard practice at a private school for middle school and high school, in my experience as a parent at a few private schools over the years.[/quote]

You must not have experience at a lot of other schools. Maybe it’s a religious school thing to charge extra. Progressive schools include it in their tuition.[/quote]

What? Buying textbooks (in addition to tuition) is fairly standard for private high schools and some middle schools. Weird to make this a religious vs progressive school thing. [/quote]

Uh yeah, it’s normal. Even if you’re paying 60k. Tuition in HS isn’t all inclusive. [/quote]
