text: It shouldn't be up to you if student participate or not due to grades you should leave that up to our parents. I absolutely understand that you want kids to have better grades and what not but still if a students parent did think the sport would make their grades decline even more then they most likely would tell them to get the grades up before joining. Disregarding sports for right now, what about other activities that's not fair to student who are apart of ski club, chess club, or any other club they all have reasons why they do what they do.
