Eazy Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 If you already have health insurance, then you should be able to decline this unnecessary coverage. thetragichippy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

butta Posted August 3, 2014 Report Share Posted August 3, 2014 Fundraise, get a sponsor.... Surely some of the plants down there would like to jump in and help cover the cost (or should). The faults of the adults should not effect (affect) the students. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CraigS Posted August 4, 2014 Report Share Posted August 4, 2014 Here is a thought (for all schools) why not have players pay for all of their own uniforms, insurance, etc. After all, there are several groups (non athletic of course) that already have to do that. Then we can see who puts their money where their mouth is...EDUCATION FIRST....hence the "STUDENT" athlete. All the savings can go to new computer labs, higher teachers wages, etc. After all, isn't that what most people are complaining about with BISD. They stole from the kids, depriving them of a good education....fire the admin, not the teachers, who provide the kids with an education....

queenb77630 Posted August 7, 2014 Report Share Posted August 7, 2014 I can't say for other districts, and I'm new to the High School football program as a parent (my son is just now a Freshman) but I know for Middle School, there were countless fund raisers every year to earn money for the athletics dept. I can only assume that the same will happen for the High School. Time will tell. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
