The Dade City Police Department is still investigating what happened to Pasco High School's money. In 2007, district officials said $20,000 collected from athletic events at Pasco High School during the past two years appeared to be missing. The district's former staff auditor of internal funds, Karen LaRochelle, said Pasco High had no gate receipts in the bank for the school's soccer or highly successful and popular baseball games. Police said they hope to bring the case to the state attorney soon.
