Camille Racer also urged the Board to support Junior Panther athletics of various sorts, including soccer and track for the girls.
Superintendent Dr. Robert Chappell explained to the Rappahannock News that the administration, after lengthy and careful consultation with school athletic officials, had recommended ' shifting funds to coaching spots in girls JV soccer and volleyball for girls and boys.
But Chapell, after hearing Knjck and the others at the meeting, said, “I want to take another look at the issue.” Chappell noted that the requirement for a fee of as much as $125.00 for a youngster to play in Amissville was “new information.”
The superintendent noted that the budget dollars involved amount to something between $3-5,000.
In a school budget of more than $11 million, it is a tiny figure, but the interest aroused, the devotion to the game, and the energy of the parents and coaches clearly made an impression at the Board meeting.
