Answer 1

  You shouldnt worry too much. Your first two years of high school shouldnt be expensive at all, maybe just lunch money, and school supplies (notebooks, pens/pencils, etc). A lot of public high schools help families who dont make a lot of money, so talk to a high school counselor and they will be able to help you =D

Answer 2

It all depends on how active you want to be. School can be completely free if you choose for it. Have your parents fill out forms that the school offers for reduced priced lunch or free lunch. This is one thing you can do to lower the cost. Also, choose to take the bus, walk, or ride a bike instead of driving or getting dropped off. This will save everyone money. Many schools now have fees to play sports, but it is possible at some to get this fee waived. You probably again have to fill out a form, but if you are low income, saving that money for something else might be worth it. Sports in general are expensive.. Jerseys, sweats, tennis shoes..it can cost around $100 plus depending on the sport. Cheerleading can be extra expensive with camps and such. Other things you might spend on is school clothing and supplys. Supplys can be found relatively cheap, especially with all the going back to school deals. Clothing... try walmart, their clothes are decently cheap, and they have cute styles these days so that it is impossible to tell where it is from!! Good luck :)
