Hi Jim,

Our school's sports teams contract out to someone using Cold Fusion and the
cost is 55 bucks a month for the add-heavy version.

I'm working on a Joomla site for our school (hosting it outside of the
district to avoid problems) and it's pretty easy to use.  I've never used a
CMS before, though, so someone with some CSS expertise and a little PHP
skill could work wonders with both Joomla and Drupal.

Here's the site I'm working on.  I've only put about 4 or so hours into it
so far (using a default Joomla template, even, so it could look much fancier
soon):
