The Court House spouter that thinks sports and art are on the same level as academic subjects, is just wrong. The only purpose of a school is education and that is the only thing our tax dollars should go towards. If some parent wants their kid to play sports, let them do so on their own time and with their own money, rather than mooch off taxpayers. In the real world, you use math and science. You need to be able to read and write. No one cares if you can paint a picture or play football. Bakley was right. The school board should prioritize academics over sports and arts.
