"KIAAA is funded by individual member's dues and KIAAA convention registrations." - In the school budget does it show up as professional fees/dues, meals, lodging, etc. The school pays their salary - which is funded by - well you know.

I guess at a time when the Kansas House has school district consolidation bills back on the table acrossed the state that may be affective in 2012. It just doesn't make sense to put a larger financial burden on individual high schools.

Kansas House to Debate School Consolidation
HB 2704

TOPEKA, Kan. (AP) - Kansas House members are scheduled to debate a bill that would reduce the state aid for some small school districts.
The bill on Tuesday's calendar is viewed as a means to force districts with enrollments of fewer than 200 students and fewer than 200 square miles to consolidate. They are the same provisions that were used in the 1960s when Kansas last forced school districts to consolidate.
Those smaller districts would see the state aid given to low-enrollment districts reduced to the same level as those with 200 students. The change would take effect on July 1, 2012.
As originally proposed, the bill would have included districts with fewer than 400 students, but was amended by the House Education Committee to the lower limit.
