[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think all middle and high school sports teams should be axed-what would the cost savings be? If the school system can't afford to teach without insane class sizes or not increasing teacher pay, than fun "extras" like sports teams and their coaches and expenses do need to go. Kids can play sports in private leagues or pick up in their neighborhood.

Foreign language in elementary is a waste of time and money at just once per week, they aren't going to learn the language with an hour a week, so cut.

Increase class sizes for ESL students and set up afterschool clubs with volunteers for extra help.

All administrators at gatehouse substitute teach or fill in at the schools in whatever capacity is needed 2-3 x a month as part of their regular job duties.

I can't see HS sports getting cut, but maybe reduced.  No girls volleyball when there's fall field hockey and boys only play football.  No  more lacrosse for either gender, or winter track. [/quote]
