So at Highlands kids go there for academic reasons? Lets say if football was taken out of Highlands then none of these kids would leave because their there for academics.

A vast majority of the players on the team take some type of AP class, so I would say that most of them actually care about their education. I can only think of maybe four or five starters who don't participate in the AP curriculum.

To take football from Highlands would be to change our culture. These people have been playing almost of their lives. If you were to take away football, it would just be replaced by our excellence in some other sport since most play football exclusively.
