Furthermore, contingency budgets do not have to include the raze-and-burn of extracurricular activities--indeed, extracurricular activities are specifically called out as an authorized contingent expense under the law. There are a few requirements, but they aren't as dire as some administrators and board members claim them to be. See here for more details.
Really? That's good to know, thanks for this.

We have been filed as a non-profit organization years ago(around 2008) according to our oldest mentor so we have to check up on that, and we are technically separate from our school money wise as the district has no control over how we spend money as that is handled by our booster club. We have some corporate sponsors but none that give the amount of money our school district gives us.
