    Yearbooks

    Yearbooks are coming out. For the elem school, they are only $15 or so. For Kate (middle school) they are $34... plus tax, etc., etc.

    Do you buy your kids the yearbooks? Make them buy them themselves? Split the cost???

    Kate has *no money* now, but she could earn it theoretically, if she really cared to. I think last year I paid half, but $8 is a lot less than $17...

    :huh:

    Re: Yearbooks

    i simply refuse to buy yearbooks for elementary school. i never had one until jr high, and it wasn't until i was that age that i was interested in my buddies signing stuff, etc. i'm sure my mom paid for mine way back then - but i have no idea what i'll do when my kids are in middle school. i assume boys are less into that stuff anyway.

      I didn't buy one for DD. She doesn't even realize half of the school exist outside of her kindergarten classroom. We have her class picture with her teacher and the principal. They are kicking us out of the school next year anyway. I not throwing any money they're way even if it is for a book my child will leave out for her sister's to rip anyway.

      Maybe in middle school.

        I didn't get the elem one until Kate was in 4th, I think. She needed to have that picture of her crush to drool over all summer.

        But for MS-- this seems expensive to me? Is it? $34? Or is that normal?

          Ours are all $15 until high school. Paperback. We get them - because everyone does and the kids have a big signing party on the last day of school. We don't look at them much after the fact, but I did use one this year when I needed pictures of all the kids for a project. Yearbooks can come in handy if you are a PTO slave.

            I have all of mine- all three years of junior high, all three years of high school and my senior year of college.

            We coughed up $35 bucks for a Circle School yearbook this year but only because I'm dying to see the crunchy parents submissions. YOu should see mine!

              OK- thanks... It just seems like a lot. :huh:

              I guess I may have to just cough it up.
