From the the article itself (emphasis mine):
>100 teams and counting statewide in first official year
From the article:
>HRHS also has a large team. Dennis Sierra, head Esports coach at the high school, said the team just rostered its 51st student.
Clubs are community-sponsored. Teams are school-sponsored and paid for from school funding.

Do you know how it works?
>With tightening school budgets, the spending per child on sports surpasses the expenditure per student in the main subjects. The spending on sports is typically three times more than the spending on education.
Just one example.

Great, even more money will be taken away from education, the actual reason for kids to be in school in the first place.
