This is in reference to the announcement that sport and fitness classes will be dramatically cut.

It's sad that we are eliminating one of the few healthy outlets for students who constantly deal with stressful situations.

Classes such as yoga, golf, bowling and weight training are fun classes that allow students to release some stress and have a class they actually enjoy going to.

These classes also promote a healthier lifestyle. In a society that's always on the go, there's not always time for exercise or a healthful meal.

When you are enrolled in a class, you not only have the motivation to work out, but you actually do it, too.

Numerous studies have shown that an overwhelming portion of the U.S. population is overweight or obese. In fact, federal health officials have called it society's No. 1 killer, so why are we getting rid of classes that help us stay fit?
