I most definitely paid for my kids camp.

 

 

In both a team camp and individual camp it is the responsibility of the camper to pay the camp fees. Schools may provide transportation to camp, but cost of the camp is left to the camper. It IS a violation of TSSAA rules for the school to pay the cost for the camper.

What are the penalties for violating this rule?

The school can pay the team fee. Each camper needs to pay the individual fee.

 

However, almost all schools get around this rule by using "booster club" money to pay for team and individual camps. This is not a penatly as long as the check doesn't come from the school.

The same rule applies to schools that feed their teams before games. The stuff is "donated" or payed for by the booster club.

    • It’s a small town and they are in the same school system. People talk and can pull up records on their personal devices. 
    • Sorry Barn. I wasn’t specific enough. It seems I’m always protecting the principal at 825. My interactions with her have been extremely positive, but very limited. With all the other stories being told, I’m confident there are other sides I am not aware of. Regardless, there are lots of decent people earning good checks up there. Maybe too good, which explains why no one is willing to speak up. My beef is with the poor communication among the athletic programs and with the administration. Seven years ago the poor communication led to my son missing graduation due to a sporting event that was planned months before. I chalked it up to the system being totally shocked that the baseball team made it out of their district, and our then AD was a football coach. Maybe they were surprised and did not plan appropriately. That was more palatable than they just didn’t give a crap. Déjà vu, seven years later, same thing. Different administration, but same result.  Maybe in seven more years, it will actually be “about the kids”. They should do better.
