What do you ask your kids to bring in on the first day of school? I'm sending my list out next week and want to make sure I didn't forget ANYTHING. Any creative ideas to help save money? Our school provides the very basics..and only in the beginning of the year. We do not get reimbursed for much throughout the year. Also, I am asking for each child to bring in a ream of copy paper. We get one box per quarter per class of 60, then we have to use our own money. Do you think this is too much?
