“....Wisconsin Interscholastic Athletic Association Deputy Director Wade Labecki said members of the organization, which regulates high school sports, have voiced their frustration about the measure.
He said the association was developed to help students graduate on time, but fears that public school students who see home-schooled students playing on their teams would be less motivated to continue their education.
“The reason for sports in schools is to keep kids in school ... it’s the carrot they have to keep kids in school,” Labecki said. “This is a way to get them out the door and still play.”...
Wade Labecki is full of crap. He has no bases for his statements. I assume Wade is the union representative for his area.
If kids see home schooled kids in sports than maybe they can get their mothers to teach them as well. Home schooled kids test better and learn more. Keeping kids in school does not mean keeping them away from home school.
