The economy has hit Highline High School. Every aspiring athlete must "Pay to Play" @ $50 per sport, up to 3 sports. $175 max per family! This has put some students in unattenable situations regarding playing sports! The HHS faculty and coachs sponsored an auction on April 23rd @ 5 PM at Normandy Cove to raise funds specifically for the purpose of allowing "the deprived" to play.
