Are corporate partnerships necessary for schools?

Question

Do you think that they are necessary for cash-strapped schools? Or do you think that schools should have an environment free from ads and corporate influence? Also, what are the pros and cons of corporate sponsorships?

Answer 1

i can tell you it sure makes it alot easier on the parents pocket book...we came from a school district that the only thing i didnt like was the soda machines..they were turned off until after 1pm which i liked the only bad thing was they were all rc cola...and any function you had to buy from them...so of course they jacked their prices up...but that was a contract with the school district someone was getting their pockets lined not the school club itself....
