Any of the clock operators/scorekeepers who is also an on-floor official serves as an alternate official. I have been called into action as an alternate myself.
I know of no school districts anywhere in our state who either have or who'd admit to have the funding for this. In fact, I predict school boards in our state will compel AD's to revert to 2-person very soon. I'm surprised this shoe hasn't dropped by now. The fit will hit the shan then. But our preference be the last of the concerns school districts are left to contend with. Survival will predominate over athletic concerns.
I reserve the right to be wrong.
