“We don’t have sufficient funds in our district budget to support our needs,” Milrod said of the total co-curricular activities costs, while noting the current tough economic climate.

“The parents were dead-set against that,” Winterberg recalled. “If you’re going to charge me a fee for a sport or marching band, my money will go to my kid’s activity.”
