Corporate contracts fill school budget gaps
In Scotts Valley California the local school district faces slashing 900000 from a 15000000 budget next year. It hired a marketing firm to recruit corporate sponsors for a new sum center or theater at the high school in exchange for plaques or mentions in school publications. Nationwide districts increasingly accept corporate sponsorships to fund programs and activities, drawing criticism over impact on student health and education.
