This girl, as well as all home schooled kids, deserve to participate in extra-cirricular activities if they rightfully earn a spot in the activity/team.

Her parents pay school taxes and the district should not be able to legally deny her participation (taxation without representation). I hope her parents sue the pants off of this school district and WIN!

I pay school taxes and I don't even have kids, can I join the team?

If she's not part of the school then she's not part of the school.

That's the court case right there. Let a judge decide to either refund the taxes or mandate that she can use the public school's facilities. This wouldn't be a point if the public schools were more community-friendly instead of immitating Castro's prison system.
