Just be honest with them. Tell them you cannot afford that amount of money. They will understand.

Hehe, it will probably come across as really highbrow and intellectual to some people, but I think it's a great idea! The wonderful thing about the general public is that there are so many diverse interests that you're bound to find others who share your passions. A museum club sure sounds better than some of the more wacky clubs I have at my school, and members would really get something out of meetings. I would recommend that you bring up the topic of fundraising with a school official before you start the club, however. School policy on holding bakesales and whatnot vary from school to school, and you want to make sure that you can do it before you start, otherwise you're going to end up with a very dull and ineffective club. Try to come up with a budget beforehand, and don't get carried away by your plans - always keep the money factor in mind. Don't let that discourage you though. If you have the time and the interest, then go for it!

Because schools are under-funded! In reality they are well-funded but the money goes to the top first just like everywhere else. I was in senior high school from 87-90 and played football, baseball, and golf. It cost me and my parents 1-5% of what it would cost now, the only thing I had buy on my own was golf clubs($50 used Wilson club set) and shoes for each sport, now you must provide everything in most school related activities, even fees just to join. I have found hockey to be the worst for sports, and I imagine there would be alot more saxophone players today if a student could play any instrument he/she wished without having to worry about how much it cost.

As a parent and a teacher, I know both sides and I don't like it.  It has taken away from things I wish my son were experiencing in school.  Things I did- fun things.  I don't like the way it makes my son's school look in the ratings, when I know for a fact that it is a good school.  I wouldn't send my son there if it wasn't.

Teachers have been getting paid too much on the "high end" of seniority for quite a while now. Starting Teachers are making anywhere from 27-34K plus full benefits, not cheap ones either, for working just over 1/2 of a year. Many Teachers also work second jobs, not so much for the need to earn more money than the want, and are mostly in Professional type jobs making top wages there also. There are actual College Professors, I am sure not too many though, that make less than School District Teachers. The Teachers, through their Union Representatives, have informed the School Districts that within a certain amount of years they want to be making almost double the salary that they are now and do not want to pay towards their health coverage. Teachers are already , in many areas, getting "extra pay" for Parent / Teacher meetings which had always been a part of their regular job description. Where else can a person work 1/2 of a year, get vacation and sick time, an excellent pension, repayment and then raises for taking required College courses to keep up to date or to advance in thier careers, full and complete healthcare benefits with zero copays and zero contributions, practically guaranteed raises every year...one way or another, and don't have to work that hard usually? I won't even mention what some of the Teachers do instead of Teaching their students many times. So, are Teachers underpaid? Not at all. You cannot compare State to State or even different areas of the same State because of so many differences in demographics and wage disparagy, and to anyone who turns in another Professional career to make less and work harder as a Teacher, I have no sorrow for them as it was their choice, they can choose to return to their old job if they want! Must be some reason why they don't! Taxpayers do not have a quarter of the benefits nor half of the pay as Teachers in most cases, and surely do not get 1/2 a year off either. Many places do not have sick days anymore and certainly do not offer many vacation days. Health insurance in the real world usually costs the employee $60.00 or more per week just for themselves and doesn't cover much, and to insure a family would cost one worker in the family their entire pay each week at least if not more, to have insurance that doesn't cover everything! Teachers make plenty, don't fall for their crying.

I would talk to another teacher in your school, the principle or vice principle.  They should not be talking to you like that_

It is next to impossible to become a teacher without spending money, even if you get a full scholarship to the university of your choice... you will still have to pay for certification tests and your teaching license.

Everyone is fake and you have to deal with underpaid teachers telling you what you should do. Most of your friends become your enemies.

Make the teacher a scrapbook of all of you.  You could each put in special letters of why you think he/she is really special.  This way the only things you are paying for is a scrapbook, note paper and film.  You could even let some of the other people he/she has taught write notes.  This is something that he/she can carry with them forever.  It will also remind that that he/she are doing a great job.   You can even ask some of the other teachers if they would like to put in something.

You may want to go to a teaching school, if there is one in the area.  If you don't have the money or insurance, you may wind up getting them free!!

You need to take it up with the principal or whoever funds the extra curricular activities before you can just start a club all willy-nilly.\n\nHey, I think its a great idea though. You're going to need LOTS of gym mats, beams, uneven bars. parallel bars, a big floor, a pit, at least 3 trampolines, a vault, chalk, guards, matching uniforms, leotards, or jackets, stereo...\n\nThis is going to cost lots and lots of money and time, I am not sure how possible it can be, but good luck in starting the club!

Some times its better to keep it all good without crap, but simetimes a teacher is just asking for the crap. Its okay to have a little crap, but keep the crap level low and quality level high :)

If the teacher is qualified to teach and there are no other problems, then maybe you should be a little more open minded.\n\nSuing for something like that does not make any sense.  This is why the cost of education has gone up.\n\nIf the teacher has done something to your son then by all means take action but if not then grow up and let the teacher do his/her job.

actually, we do, but its not really an offical club with school fundings and stuff. ITs more like a group of people who like anime enough to publish something from our handiwork. \nMost of the stiff you'd find in them are compiled comics from different people of the goup, anonymous contributors, and anime info requests sent in by younger members. \nOfcourse, the group gathering is quite loaded with rules that all must comply. The heads of the gathering are mostly from the high level students, like the seniors. This is applied so that the members of the clud would not suffer in their school work. The more mature the member gets, the more controlled he/she is in working in the publication.\nIts no wonder your teachers would not allow you to make one in school. Anime can get very addictive, nd often times lead you to get distracted from school work.BEsides, its purely an interest based  club.\nMy advice is, even though you're not asking for it, try talking to your teacher about the hobby. Give her the good points of your idea about making a club. Although often times the higher authorities would disagree...\nIn situations like that, why not just make a club among your friends and pass it on to the next generation of people who share the same idea as you do? That's how the anime club in school started. As of today, we're the 14th batch of members. Who knows? you could be a founder of a student based anime club! you could look back one day and see younger students following your footsteps...\nand feel nostalgia in the process...hehe...

In short it depends on your teachers, and how sticky they are with the rules.  Also what does your highschool policies say? most likely if they really dont care, you probably dont have much to worry about, but if just one of them does, you just might be hooped
