Sell the naming rights to the school's sports complex and stadium. The field house would sit near the sports complex's football, soccer and softball fields. The building would house locker rooms, weight rooms, offices and storage space. The pros do it.
Colleges do it.
So far, the boosters have approached 40 firms and been turned down by three. This week, the district's other brand-new high school, Lakota East, announced the naming rights to its sports complex and planned field house are also for sale. Someday, I hope, both schools get to build those new field houses. But my wish is that they raise the money some other way. Selling the names of high school stadiums says everything can be bought.
