I think a lot does depend upon the culture at the school - some schools have lots of events where kids traditionally dress a little nicer which opens up a whole genre of clothes that would be needed whereas other schools don’t. I had to have my parents come up after the first week to bring me some dressier cloths for a weekly event that our school held during the fall.

But right now I’m facing the opposite problem as I believe my DS is bringing way too little and he will be 7 hours away so driving him up extra stuff won’t be an option. Our activity for today is to wash all of his clothes, put them in piles in his room so he can visually see everything he’d be thinking about bringing. That way he can figure out, for example, if his pile of underwear is big enough to match his desired frequency of doing laundry.
