School starts here on August 15. Where the hell did summer go!?
I'll have a junior and sophomore in high school this coming year, and I'm dreading how much it's going to cost in fees.
I've never had to do a payment plan before, but this may be the first year. On top of book/enrollment fees are lab fees, band fees, jrotc fees, and OTHER fees for other classes. My daughter is in sophomore honors English, and there's a damn $50.00 fee for that.
I think by the time I add it all up, it's gonna be close to $600.00...and that's figuring in what I KNOW about . Of course, that includes uniforms for four different jrotc uniform rentals, band uniform rentals, I have to buy shoes for band and jrotc... the list keeps growing. Not to mention just the crap supplies they need, clothes and all that.
I'm having a mini panic attack.
Enrollment fees are due next week. I don't remember school costing this much before. A friend of mine, his kids attend parochial school and he's not paying nearly this much.
Argh!!!!
I feel your pain. My Daughter just finished 6 years of Private school at $5,000 a year and is heading to College Aug 23. I am not going to complain too much because due to her grades she received scholarships that just about covered her entire tuition. We will be paying $5,000 a year for the next 4 years but she won't owe a dime when finished.
