[quote=Anonymous]So 100 kids try out and only 30 make the team, those 30 that make the team get an additional advantage of not having to take PE, which frees them up to take an extra honors or AP course that could boost their GPA over the non athletic kids, or the athletic kids that just couldn’t make the team. Then you get the parent whose kid does 20 hours of martial arts after school each week but NOT for a school team lobbying for their kid to also be free from the PE requirements. Should the marching band also be excused? I have a kid in marching band who spends an insane number of hours practicing formations in the heat, arguably expending more energy than the golf team, but band is not a sport so… There’s just no way to do it fairly. It’s just a part of this public school district, just accept it and move on. [/quote]
