Minimum supplies and instructional materials necessary to meet basic course objectives shall be provided without charge to students except as follows:
Students are expected to provide their own raw materials for projects in classes (e.g., family consumer science and skilled and technical sciences) where the result is an item of some value belonging to the student. A resale program is operated in connection with those classes where students use school supplies to produce products that they take home for their own use (e.g., skilled and technical sciences, family consumer science).
Students are expected to have certain personal items such as appropriate clothing and shoes for physical education classes.
Students who voluntarily undertake independent study activities or optional experiences which go beyond basic course objectives are expected to pay for additional or unusual materials involved, except in those few instances in which the student and the school agree in advance that the school is to retain the resulting product. Students shall not be pressured to select optional activities involving personal expense. Teachers shall restrict required assignments to those for which necessary supplies are provided by the school.
There shall be periodic review of optional experiences involving expense to students to determine whether or not any should be included in the basic program and funds allocated for their support.
