text: High school sports would also get very kaiotic as students wouldn't be attending an actual high school. Online students would not be able to participate in high school atheltics, as they wouldn't be a part of the active student body that could be selected for a varsity team. This puts online students at a major disadvantage, as much of high school is centered around athletic activities such as football, basketball, and baseball. Online students would have only the oportunity to attend these games, and couldn't even tryout for the team. Becuase of this, online school demands a certain type of normal school student, one that doesn't play sports or participates in activites. These students are somewhat rare, as many high schools have very active student bodies that participate in many different clubs or sports.
