Default Re: How much do you spend on school supplies?

I'm a senior in high school, and school definitely gets more expensive every year. I reuse things such as colored pencils, crayons (lol, I still have some of the same crayons for elementary school), leftover paper, pens, etc. But my binders are usually shot by the end of each year so I have to buy new notebooks. Plus, year books are about $75. There's the parking permit (only a couple of dollars), senior pictures, book rental fees, supplies fee for certain classes (digital photo, etc), the stadium pass (it is cheaper to be a season pass than to pay for each game) and then I am also taking College Now courses, which cost about 189 dollars per course per semester. (Four of my high school classes are CN courses)

Add that up and . . . wow. The price of education is HIGH.
