MILPITAS HIGH SCHOOL ATHLETIC
"FAIR SHARE" DONATION FORM
PLEASE READ THOROUGHLY!!
Dear Parents and Athletes,
Please help us not cut services and keep our MHS Athletic Program going and donate
your "Fair Share" to the MHS Athletic Program.
The Milpitas Unified School District has had their budget cut at a rate of at least
$10,000,000 a year for the past several years. Some of the necessary budget cuts have
had to be passed on to the MHS Athletic Department, which no longer has the funds
necessary to continue to provide the same services it has provided before, including
limited to transportation. It is vital and essential that we have close to a 100% "Fair
Share" Donation rate, in order to continue to provide athletics to our student athletes
at the current level. We need you, regardless of your child’s sport, to donate your "Fair
Share" to help keep the MHS Athletic Program going.
If we do not receive enough "Fair Share" donations it will result in
the elimination of services and / or athletic teams.
Your "Fair Share" donation may be tax deductible so please contact your personal tax expert or CPA.
The following are the policies for the MHS Athletics Department "Fair Share" Donation
1. All high school student athletes, once the team’s final roster has been set by the coach, are kindly
asked to do their "Fair Share" and donate a minimum of $100.00 to MHS Athletics. The 'Fair
Share" donation can be submitted to the MHS school bank along with this form. (See opposite side)
2. All athletes must complete and submit the MHS Athletic Donation Form prior to being allowed to
participate in an athletic contest, home or away. The form needs to be submitted whether you chose
to participate in your "Fair Share" or not. The MHS Athletic "Fair Share" Donation Form must be
submitted 48 hours prior the first contest, whether it is a game or scrimmage or whether it is a
home or away contest.
4. Submitting the MHS "Fair Share" Athletic Donation Form whether a "Fair Share" donation is made or
not has no bearing on playing time. Choosing to participate in the "Fair Share" donation does not
guarantee a given amount of playing time per game or playing time during the season.
5. There are no "Fair Share" donation refunds provided for students who quit, become ineligible for
participation, or are dropped from the team as a result of discipline measures. Refunds may be
issued, if requested, in cases of injury that negate playing with the team prior to the start of the
season. Once a season has started there are no refunds, as the requested funds will have already
been committed to the MHS Athletic budget.
6. If enough "Fair Share" funds are available, transportation we will attempt to be provided for all
weekday contests, except for scrimmages and tournament play. Weekend and holiday transportation
will be kept to a minimum. Parents will be asked to help transport students on some weekends, to all
scrimmages, to all tournament play and in instances when a bus is not available
7. Special arrangements can be made for those who chose to donate but cannot do so all at
one time. Please contact the MHS Athletic Director.
