 <p>
     We want you to use Runestone! But before your school district sends me a contract to
     sign, please read

-    >Please note, cyber insurance has become prohibitively expensive. Basically we can pay our server bill or we can buy insurance.  You would probably rather have us pay our server bill, so anything you can do to convince your district to support Runestone will help me to do both.  Runestone Academy is incorporated as a non-profit, we are awaiting approval of our 501(c)(3) status.
+        >This letter</a> I know that many districts will still want a signed agreement.  We can process these agreements, but beginning January 1, 2023 we will charge your district $100 to do so.  Runestone Academy is incorporated as a non-profit, we are awaiting approval of our 501(c)(3) status.

     August 2021/22 school year.  At $100 a textbook we saved students $6 million last year! Thats a
     lot of students and a lot of savings. It takes a lot of work to keep this site up and growing. We are adding new features and improvements all the time.  Please consider a
     <a href="/runestone/default/donate">donation</a> or ask your institution to support Runestone. If every school sent us $100 per class we would be fully sustainable and could add support staff.
