text: But here's the plan if you tell them that they should keep their grades up to be in sports they will be more focused on it and not just not caring. Because some children may not know it but academics are very important "knowledge power." And it takes you a lot of places in life good places though. So making children put their minds on academics more is not a bad idea. And trust me i' m not just hating, so they say on sports or any other activity because i play lots of sports myself(track and field, soccer, cheer leading, and gymnastics act..). But because i know that academics are more important i put my mind to more so that i can succeed in life and that what everyone should want is to succeed. Because as stated before "knowledge is power."Dear Principal,
