Charging for Athletic Events
All middle schools
have been asked to charge for all athletic events. The purpose
of charging is two fold. First and foremost is to provide a
controlled environment for our athletes to participate in. Aside
from creating a safe environment for the participants, the
ticket price also generates funds which are necessary to help
pay for transportation, security, and other expenses associated
with the team's expenses. Please be reminded that no district
funds are provided to the schools to fund the athletic program.
All funds are generated from fundraisers or gate revenue.
All adults and
students should expect to purchase a ticket to attend the game,
match, or meet. Parents or students who are working the event
should not be charged. Examples include: coaches, timers,
scorer, managers, or those working the concession stand. No
child below school age should be charged.
Middle
School Ticket Prices:
Football:
Adults $4.00, Students $3.00
All other sports: Adults $3.00, Students $2.00
Any questions or
concerns should be directed to the District Athletic Office,
858-6142
