Just because I have to. We're playing Gorman in Hico - 62 miles. Abbott has about triple our budget (and that's a guess), so that's a terrible comparison. Our football budget is $2000. When there's only 48 kids in our High School, funding for trips is just not there. This is why we were having to appeal our district when Apple Springs got put in our district. Not dodging Apple Springs, but couldn't financially justify a 2.5 hour drive. I have to answer to people above my pay grade on travel expenses. There's very few highly competitive schools within an hour drive that's not on our schedule.
