I are an edjikater two, and even tho I are two smart for Jerassick, I two think the monee issue is a farce...

The schools around here tried the "We can't afford it" routine, so our association compromised with them - we took a pay cut for the first three season, and after that they had to pay the whole amount...this coming season will be the first at the full amount. In talking with several AD's, they all pretty much agree that it was a bogus argument and monetarily they will be fine...that includes large schools and small schools. Schools budget $$ for athletics completely separate from the general ed. budget...that athletic money goes through the ASB or Activites Office and does not affect textbooks, teacher salaries, replacing lightbulbs, buying toiliet paer, etc...the $$ issue is a cop-out.
