Pay To Play
In the 2006-07 school year, a pay-to-play policy was implemented for all extracurricular activities due to the situation of the school budget. The cost to participate in a club is $15. For an athletic activity, or an activity needing regular school bus transportation, the cost is $50. This program has continued into the 2007-2008 school year. However, some clubs have returned to being free. This is likely to continue as long as the annual school budget continues to pass.

Famous quotes containing the words pay and/or play:
“Religion, like water, may be free, but when they pipe it to you, you’ve got to help pay for piping. And the Piper!”
—Abigail Van Buren (b. 1916)
“... work is only part of a man’s life; play, family, church, individual and group contacts, educational opportunities, the intelligent exercise of citizenship, all play a part in a well-rounded life. Workers are men and women with potentialities for mental and spiritual development as well as for physical health. We are paying the price today of having too long sidestepped all that this means to the mental, moral, and spiritual health of our nation.”
—Mary Barnett Gilson (1877–?)
