Season 7, Episode 1: Students Weigh in on SGA Prices

RM TidePod Season 7 Episode 1

Over the past couple of years, the prices of events such as homecoming prom and sporting events have been a hot topic of debate within the RM community. Although prices for sporting events such as football and soccer are set at a reasonable cost of 5 dollars, with Richard Montgomery’s homecoming price set at 30 dollars, students within the RM community have wondered if SGA events are still worth the cost. Some students have begun not to attend homecoming but rather dress up and take pictures with friends to avoid the hefty price. In order to shed light on opinions about SGA prices we spoke to students in the community about their views on the current prices and also spoke to SGA advisor Mrs. Garrigues to learn more about what goes into deciding the cost for homecoming and how that cost factors into other events for the school year.
