In case you are wondering what $100,000 could mean to a school let me tell you a story of a school budget.

In a regular year my school has about 300 students. Our budget for the year has been shrunk by 10% year after year by the school board and we currently it around $26,000. This may seem like a lot, but it covers every piece of paper, photocopy (about 1/2, due to lack of technology), textbook(about $100 each), online subscription, paint brush and broken window repair, among other things.
