4. Usually our school wants some money for an arts
program that is given to the entire district and it's something like $5 or $15. In the past, I've sent double or triple for the kids that don't bring anything in. In elementary schools they always ask for tissues and other stuff like that to get the classroom through the year but what is sent in probably doesn't last. Activities-- well, my son was not a joiner but the games usually cost a few dollars to see.
