I don't know why kids have such problems with the important realities of life. More astro-turf, better stadiums, and fancier facades on administration buildings will help. Especially when we can't afford to maintain educational classes.

What's exciting about old worn out facilities? Take the time to go look at the facilities in Pike, Monroe, & Spalding Counties that surround you. If you ain't moving-forward, then you're moving-backwards... Psychological perceptions have everything to do with attitudes relative to the educational process, and a lot of other things in life.

Outdated facilities -- subliminally -- affect the attitudes of the people (students, teacher & staff) that occupy these facilities. Set the bar high, and you will have an opportunity to be more successful... Set it low, and you will be an underachiever, in all likelihood... I'll subscribe to the former concept, as opposed to the latter. 'Attitude Determines Altitude'... Think about it!!!
