We have heard about school districts setting specific rules for fundraising and requiring schools to submit ideas for fundraising. So, you are not alone on this. Have you considered having a discussion with the superintendent about your fundraising? Maybe you could show them how overall fundraising has gone down and see if there are any compromises that might work -- for example, holding a food fundraiser and distributing the product off site.

Some school districts make a distinction between selling on campus and off campus. The types of products sold on campus may be limited; however selling off campus is usually not restricted. This is where brochure fundraisers are often used. There are products that can be sold on and off campus that don't contain sugar. Beef jerky is one product that is selling very well.
