You can sit there and crush on him forever or you can get him, I prefer to do the latter to be honest. It's always worth the risk.

Only if you are brave, totally self confident, and/or there's a very good chance he likes you back.
These secrets don't stay secrets for long time in a school. Sooner or later he'd find out who's the sender .
If he were an older guy, I think he'd appreciate the sweet gesture regardless , whether he likes you or not, and would feel touched.
But at his age, boys can be cruel, uncouth and insensitive. If he does not like you back, he could openly make fun of you, or brag about your unrequited love with his friends.
I don't want this to sound as an encouragement to only play it totally safe in love, in fact, some times you'll have to take risks and wear your heart on your sleeve. But perhaps it's better to wait until you've grown a thicker skin than the average 13-15...

live a little! Do the secret thing and have a smirk as he stands there all stumped as to who it was.
It will be a great story to tell one day, trust me :)
Most people chicken out of these things, but I reckon you should for that reason aone. Besides, its always nice to learn that someone has a crush. You don't have to tell anyone, remember that :)

Eh, in the US they make you attend school.
Is it one of those heart cookies, or single carnations? That's what we had in when I was in school.
$5, yep that's about all I would spend on a crush.
Send it then include from you, "secret admirer" and then later ask your crush if he enjoyed his gift. You have to tell him eventually (sooner than later) it was from you.

Don't do it unless you plan on following up on it. It would be pointless to spend your money and send him a gift when 1. he doesn't know who it's from and 2. you don't plan on doing anything about it.
