[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]They will not get rid of sports. That would make the school district less desirable. I didn't do sports growing up and my kids are not athletic, but I know it's a big deal to many families. I also enjoyed going to the football games in high school, they fostered school pride/spirit. I assume you'd also get rid of marching band? Charging a fee would be a much better option.[/quote] I don't think anyone's saying "get rid of sports". Just stop sinking so much money into them.[/quote] Did you read the OP? I think "dump extracurricular sports altogether" means getting rid of sports rather than charging fees for sports. The OP also states "And Lord knows there are TONS of opportunities fir sports in this area. It's not like the only place you can play lacrosse, swim, or cheer is at school..." Read in context, clearly OP was advocating getting rid of extracurricular sports "altogether."[/quote]
