Why LEAP is unfair


Zobel Athletes represent the school in various school competitions and tournaments and because of this they train after class and compete in different schools at certain times they may miss class just to compete in a competition. A program named (Learning experience athletic program) has been made to cater review classes for these Athletes considering that they may miss class due to competitions or lack time to study and review due to training time. LEAP is like a review class that is strictly only for athletes teachers of a specific subject are selected and they are assigned to teach after class in a selected classroom.

I honestly find this unfair because other students like Org officers,musicians,performers,
and SRCC officers they also miss class for their activities,and they also compete and represent the school outside of Zobel yet they dont get any review classes? If the point of LEAP was for the students who represent the school athletically to be able to catch up with their studies what about those who represent the school through leadership? Performing? Academics?

The Athletes may be representing the school but that isn't enough of a reason for them to be the ONLY ones to receive special review classes . I believe that other students who represent the school may it be in Academical contests,Performing arts and Leadership activities should also receive review classes after all athletes aren't the only ones representing and making the school proud.

Hopefully in the future review classes would be made to cater not just Athletes.
