They really look out for the kids and are amazing will the personal help they give. That said I just found out the cost this year for my son who is going to be a freshman. Let’s just say free public education isn’t as free as I would like. Just for year book, ASB cards and PE clothes alone is over $200! This isn’t including school pictures, the cost of any dances and other activities that will come up. I know I should feel blessed that my kids are able to have the opportunity to get a great education but WOW it’s expensive. We still have to buy school clothes and supplies too! Maybe I can sell some blood to help pay for it all.

So much for the value of a free public education. Ok I’m done complaining now.
