Anchor Club, Students Against Destructive Decisions (SADD), Key Club, Gay Straight Alliance (GSA), Roots and Shoots are just a few clubs that our school offers. There are numerous clubs that students can join, however at a price. Signing up for the clubs is just the start. Once a student signs up for a club if they would like to join it officially they would have to pay a due. These dues can range from ten dollars to twenty- five dollars. It is not only the clubs that require dues but also honor societies require students to pay. Having so many opportunities to join an interest club, our students may have that extra boost to get into the college that they applied for. Looking on this year a student spends a lot of extra money paying for dues and maybe their club shirts which are at least twenty dollars each. The total for one student would $150-155. Too much?

The student dues at my school add up to, too much money.
