Public HS: Does yours value sports over academics?

Luckily (or unluckily, depending on how you look at it), academics are easily considered over athletics. We didn’t even have a football team until this year lol, and it’s not 100% financially supported by the school. And the sports teams that almost always do well are the ones with stereotypically more intellectuals, like track and swimming (and conversely the ones with fewer necessary equipment).

We have a HUGE student fanbase for basketball though. Like, whether it’s home or away, we always get an entire section of bleachers for ourselves. It’s awesome.
