Correlation Between High School Sports and Grades
Introduction to My Capstone
The reason why I wanted to do this Capstone is because my whole life I always played sports and realized that I never felt stressed out when i had work to do, but as long as I played sports. Doing physical activity my whole life made me feel confident about my grades and improved them making me the person I am now by having high grades and having time for sports especially in high school where a lot of stress is made from school work and homework. As I have grown up grades are counted for bigger things in life and most of the time will be put for school and homework, which is why I now plan to do this study especially for schools who don't have sports or big extracurricular activities that can keep students motivated to excel more in grades.
