Why Pay to Play Matters at SMA Athletics
As a charter school, SMA does not receive the same funding as traditional public schools, which makes our “pay to play” model essential to sustaining quality athletic programs, equipment, and opportunities for our student-athletes. These fees directly support team needs and help keep our programs running strong. If your family is facing financial hardship, please don’t hesitate to reach out to our Athletic Director, SMA-MAJ Charlie Carver—we’re here to help.
