  1. Unions aren't about the teachers and working tirelessly for their compensation but most importantly the dues they collect, control and power, just my own opinion. Extracurricular activities whether band, athletics, debate teams, etc.. have a profound impact on the overall development of students thru relationship building, discipline, work ethic and other traits not learned in the classroom and should be compensated as such. Here is a quote I recently saw posted by our HC (football and track) on his FB page who by the way doesn't fit neatly in your PE example as he teaches Special ED but helps support the idea of that value. HIGH SCHOOLS? *Miss a homework assignment? Late is okey. *Fail a test? Just retake it. *Tardy to class? Here is a warning. *Playing on your phone in class? Just put it away. *Didn't make the deadline? It was extended. *Actually get an F? Have your parent call in to take care of it. HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL: *Out of shape from not training? Everybody sees it on the field, IF you get on the field. *Don't know your assignment? Everybody sees the defender fly by you and blow up the play. *Fumble the ball? Instant feedback from everybody and it is often a bit harsh. The high school football field sheds light on the "real" world in so many ways that the general high school experience does not. "Talking the Talk" does not work out there. You must "Walk the Walk" or get punched in the mouth. I LOVE HIGH SCHOOL FOOTBALL These were his words not mine.

  2. Added a bunch vs Georgia today since the GHSA released the schedules for all their member schools. A great feature that the FHSAA refuses to do
