Where does the money come from for all of that?

quote:

Tuition is $10,000, compared with $6,030 for National Connections Academy, and it's obvious why. Football programs are expensive, and Eastern Christian is not giving scholarships. Parents can help cover tuition by getting sponsors to buy $1,200 advertisements in the stadium and on Eastern Christian's web page, and Sills says he has partnered with a bank to provide families with 15-year loans.


So if I had to guess, David Sills spends most of his time finding sponsors for his athletes, donors, etc. Not all of those on the team looked like they were from rough neighborhoods.

Damn, I just read that whole article.

I still have some questions about the funding. There's a reason that the FOCUS Foundation didn't work at the Red Wolves school in Delaware. $6 Mil in debt? How does it even get to that.

I think that article provoked more questions than answers for me.
