Why Is Interscholastic Sports Important In Schools

Interscholastic Sports Schools around America have interscholastic sports as part of their school. Some people say schools should cut sports from their schools to cut down on cost. Other people say sport program make schools what are are and cutting them is a mistake. Although people think ending interscholastic sports is necessary, schools around America need sports at their school because kids learn sportsmanship and are getting exercise.
Most say if schools cut sports the students grades will improve. However, kids in sports have to pass to play. That is motivation for some kids, if schools take sports out some kids may have no motivation to try and will flunk. Also, the coaches stress student-athletes and make sure the players are passing.
Coaches do a monthly grade check and any kid lower than a C gets talked to and the coaches set up study sessions.
Many people argue sports cost to much. Sporting events make a lot of money in sales. The tickets are $5 for adults and $3 for kids. If 200 parents come and 100 kids that's $1,300 in revenue. Also, the concession stand makes a ton of money for the school. If each person buys 1 thing that's another huge boost in revenue. Another thing that keeps cost low is fundraising. Oskaloosa has the Booster Club and they raise so much money for our schools sports that it doesn't cost the school that much at all.
