[quote=Anonymous]Actually, they might be worse students without the sports. Time spent at academics isn't the only determining factor. There are other things at play, like happiness, focus, health, etc. Some people are at their most creative during or after exercise. I work in education, and I will often "prescribe" more physical activity for students who are not doing well. It can give the day structure, help them focus, stave off depression/anxiety, make them more self-confident, and decrease screen time, which can compound other issues. [/quote]
