Corporate sponsorship is not worth it. It does more to line the pockets of corrupt school officials than it does students. A free market society does not need the corporate attention-whorishness that goes on today.

Anything to help educate our children. The government sure enough seems to be having a hard time paying for it. To many political holiday trips taken out of the budget. Our school has had all art, music and language programs stripped from it, and the computers are all 10 to15 years old. If they can improve things, them bring them on!!
