Joe Ertter Memorial Scholarship
Hello Hornet Families...
Our sincere thanks to all that are continuing to support the Kirtland Hornet Athletic Boosters Club. We hope to bring back the comradery you have known throughout the years that is revered in Kirtland, Ohio. The Athletic Boosters is a 501 (3c) volunteer organization made up of parents, alumni, administration, and coaches who strive to work together for the betterment of the community, school and sports programs. We have provided support to Kirtland sports teams by funding facility improvements, paying for OSHAA coaching fees, purchasing needed equipment and providing new uniforms. If we are to continue to give our students and athletes the very best tools with which to succeed and compete, we need your support and help in running our Athletic Booster Club!
Pay to Participate fees
Recent changes in Kirtland Local Schools sports include a Pay to Participate fee (PTP) for all Middle School and High School sports participants. The school district has implemented this fee to help offset the costs of coaching salaries, transportation, and insurance. With these changes, the Athletic Booster Clubs goal is to continue support and assist in keeping these fees to a minimum.
What we do:
The Athletic Boosters provide support for the Kirtland Local School District athletics and academics. Through membership and fundraising, the Athletic Boosters are able to contribute and subsidize the Middle School and High School athletic budgets as well as provide support to several school and community activities including :
