It's my understanding the pay for play in Franklin Township will be implemented next school year; not that it really matters. Someone correct me if I'm wrong.
We can speculate, but no one knows the long term ramifications of the pay for play policy. Many states have done this for years, and there's no evidence that participation in HS athletics took a nosedive. I hope that FC admins and board members mentioned the possibility of cutting the pay for play costs back, or eliminating them entirely, once the cash flow gets under control. Of course one only needs to look at the gas and oil industry to see that it's hard to go back to "rational sense" when people are willing to fork out cash.
