| Hi, hops_scout, I went to Sparta High my freshman year!
There is a reason that Texas schools are known for having awesome sports teams and national champion cheer and drill teams...they take it as a class. Our school is on an AB block schedule, and sports, cheer, dance and marching band are double blocked, meaning that your sport/cheer/dance/band class takes up 2 of your 8 periods, or 1/4 of your schedule!!! Of course, all of those DO count toward your PE requirement, but those kids end up with 8 PE credits instead of the required 1.5. If you have a double blocked sport, it is very hard to fit in the state requirements; many take summer school. |
