This week has really frustrated me. My high school has again demonstrated it's preference to athletics. Don't get me wrong, we have immense talent when it comes to our athletics, and it is wonderful that we do appreciate their accomplishments, but it would be nice if other our organizations got some recognition. How often do you hear about the success of Theater, or Band, or Science Olympiad? The answer, unfortunately enough, is rarely.
I'm not going to lie, but this is extremely disheartening. The One Acts are this weekend and I have yet to hear a single person mention them. Of course I am a bit biased, seeing as I take part in theater and obviously want that it be broadcasted throughout the state, but I'm not sure if my bias is the actual issue here. So many extra-curricular activities accomplish amazing things, but remain unknown because the school fails to really appreciate them.
Does anyone else feel this way? Comment away! Your opinions are always appreciated :)
