This is nice, but we have no money
Many times districts have little to no money and funding can be an issue. Check with your administrators, your regional systems director, or ISBE(Linda Walker and Debbie Hopper). They may be aware of some funding or new areas that could be incorporated to fit the right "terms" to apply. Entrepreneurship, occupational training, vocational training...technology are always buzz words to help.
Small ticket items can also be requested through alumni, or foundation programs, or through local businesses that would like to help your district. Not that you want to start a cookie bake to buy a scan n cut, but showing the athletic department what can be done with the technology, maybe the booster club would buy in. (just don't want to turn it in to a sweat shop)
