High School Sports Future Looks Bleak Next Year | News | Downtown ...

JACKSONVILLE, Fla. -- Jon Fox is passionate about high school sports.

But facing teacher layoffs or sports cuts, he knows where he stands.

He was forced to turn to fundraisers and private companies this year to save some school sports like cross country and golf. Other sports like wrestling and lacrosse still need more money to have a season.

But Fox said it will be tough to raise that money year after year, and he worries he will be in the same situation next school year.

He encourages people to contact state lawmakers to support funding for school sports and education. Fox said Duval County is looking at another $61 million in cuts unless the budgeting model changes.
