[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]FACT: Sports/coaches and Music/Arts budgets are all cut to increase funding for ESOL and FARMS. So all of you for illegal aliens having the same rights as us, have to be understanding that this will continue to happen to Maryland public schools.

In 5yrs there will be no middle school or JV sports in MCPS, let alone new sports like hockey, rugby, gymnastics etc..,[/quote]

No child should go hungry or struggle to understand English because someone wants to play ice hockey. I get that it is a fun sport and kids love it.  But there are already plenty of resources to play at the club level and it would be so expensive and challenging to set up in the schools. I doubt some schools could even field one team. There are only a few ice arenas in the county,  were would practice occur? How would they share ice time? How are kids from the outer schools going to get to the practice ice? Or are you just thinking the W schools would participate?

I tend to think lacrosse is the substitute for ice hockey.[/quote]
