Cutting School Activities
Schools outside of cities don't get very much funding as the big cities like Denver. This causes school activities such as football, baseball, and track. If someones favorite sport got cut they would become less active until the school cuts your next favorite sport and so on. It causes kids who are becoming very fit to being a coach potato because they don't have practice to go to.
At my school they were going to cut cross country and even wrestling. That would mean alot of kids not be active. If my favorite sport was cut I would want to find a football team for another school I can join. The parents don't like it either because they have to drive 15-30 because they cut football so I could play football.
It always seems that the big schools who have a lot of kids they get way to much funding by the state it's crazy. They buy the necesities but then they can buy new sports equipment for every sport two times over. When our school is having to cut sports to so we have enough money to pay for lunches.
Why are we any different than anyone, yay they may have more kids but being able to pay for new equipment for every sport. It's like the state doesn't care they just give half of their money to the big schools and let us rot. There should be a change or some kids favorite sport won't be because they cut it.
