I understand the frustration about football having huge stadiums to play football in, but unless you live in that community, you shouldn't complain. Also, big ticket items such as new schools and football stadiums are not part of a regular school budget. Those things are paid for with bonds. The people in the community vote on bonds which specifically list where and how the money for the bond will be spent. So, the majority of the people that live in these communities are ok with the large stadiums. If they weren't, the bond would have never passed to build it.

FRIENDS OF ANDERSON 2018 Edition
Friends of Anderson 2018 Edition is our fall fundraising drive designed to help meet our fundraising goal
for the 2018‐2019 school year and also defray the cost of the many activities and programs sponsored
and run by the Anderson PTA. There is no selling, delivery, or collecting money. It’s as easy as writing a
check and you are done! This year our fundraising goal is to raise $17,000 for playground improvements
(update our blacktop with games/activities, similar to Story Elementary, and add soccer goals). This
fundraising goal is on top of our operating budget for the year. Our recommended donation amount per
family is $50. In the spring we will be hosting a silent auction to help us raise the remaining funds needed
to reach our fundraising goals and annual budget.
