6. Sport Funding
High school athletics in the San Ramon Valley Unified School District are mostly “self-funded”.  The athletic programs do not receive funding for equipment, uniforms, transportation, officials, or many coaching stipends. As such, participation donations help fund these valuable programs. 
We encourage all interested students to try out for athletic teams. Participation in our athletic programs is not dependent on financial donations.

Donations help us fund our programs. This donation covers major operating costs of our athletic budget which includes: officials, equipment, athletic trainers, supervision/security, facility, upgrades, first aid supplies, CIF, NCS & EBAL fees and various general expenses to operate our athletic dept. The donation for each sport are presented in an itemized budget at a parent player orientation meeting after selections.
