I have a TI83 from high school, i remember there were some models that we weren't' allowed to use
Both Target [target.com] and Amazon [amazon.com] are currently selling the Casio FX-CG50 for $81. And if you don't need a color screen, the Casio FX-9750GIII is available for around $50.
The main issue that students may encounter is that some teachers only want TI calculators in class because that is what they use to demonstrate calculations with. CASIO has a Youtube playlist [youtube.com] that shows how to do functions on the Casio compared to how they are done on the TI, so a smart kid should be able to figure things out without the teacher's help.

As a nerd, contrarian, and former (terrible) math teacher, I get the appeal of the Casio models.
However, also as a former (terrible) math teacher, I think it's important to recognize that a lot of students are sometimes hanging on by a thread in math class. For a kid who doesn't quite "have it" yet, pushing a slightly different button to enter an equation or having the default scale on the graph be a little different can be a really big problem.

Same price as Walmart which gives you a 90 day return (in case it turns out high school math teacher prefers another model over this).

EDIT: Newer video [youtube.com] showing how to play NES games as well on this calculator.
