[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The county has strict rules about what parents/booster clubs can provide. My kids are at a wealthy school and we can buy things like promethean boards, security cameras, sports equipment, etc. We can't add staff, hire coaches, or anything like that. I don't think a scoreboard will improve the performance of the Churchill teams. And it means that the county doesn't have to pay for a scoreboard and can use that money for other schools. Our sports booster club raises a lot of money from the concession stand, which is run and staffed entirely by parents. I go to other schools for events and their concession stand isn't open. [b] So some of you complainers may want to take the lead and organize concessions sales. [/b][/quote] You are an elitist f-ing bitch. You can't understand that many parents who send their kids to red zone schools are quite possibly working two jobs just to make ends meet? just an elitist bitch[/quote] So what do you cal the parents who live in scotland? Churchill has plenty of students that get $$ for scotland and a few other spots. where are the boosters for the library? the band etc? sports are king at all schools they bring in money..[/quote] Obviously sports brings in money. There is an admission charge to most sporting events. People attend also want to eat thus the concession stands. The county does not fund the sports programs. The school has to buy their own uniforms and equipment. The county does fund the library and buys the computers and books. That is the difference. Without booster clubs there wouldn't be sports.
