Ohio School district changes GPA requirements for sports to a 1.0

I personally don’t agree with it, my dad wouldn’t let me play if I had a C in any class. This lets them play even if their in a deferred program they’re still being rewarded for failing. Bust your ass in a classroom if your failing and take a year off it’ll make them appreciate playing that much more the next year.
