I do think the school board should adopt a new rule that requires every student to play at least one competitive sport in order to graduate from high school. There are many kids who dedicate themselves to a team sport who would not be able to “live” without it. I love swimming and synchronized swimming. I train 6 days a week and 2 Sundays a month. I know that it sounds like a lot but it is something I enjoy‚ so I have no problem in doing it. What happens to the other kids though? I mean‚ the kids

In high school‚ one of my close friends went through depression. The process into depression was slow‚ but when it hit him‚ it hit him rough.

A time I experienced failure was during last year’s school volleyball season‚ when I was a junior. I had worked hard throughout the season and towards the end of the season it all went downhill. It started with my coach talking to me about swinging down to JV‚ this had happened a little over half way through the season. He said it was a good opportunity to play more‚ I saw it more as an insult since I had been full on varsity up until then. I had worked my butt off to earn my spot and in my heart
