1. Not good with poetry, but a comment
Taking physical activity and arts out of schools is not just taking away "enrichment". Physical activity and arts actually help the brain learn the stuff like the three R's. If you take away sports and recess then you will have fat AND stupid kids. Take away the arts and the only kids who will succeed will be the ones who can memorize dry facts. But they won't know how to think creatively so they'll eventually struggle too.
