Participation in our athletic programs is not dependent on financial donations.

This donation covers major operating costs of our athletic budget which includes: officials, equipment, athletic trainers, supervision/security, facility, upgrades, first aid supplies, CIF, NCS & EBAL fees and various general expenses to operate our athletic dept.
