In another thread we're discussing the topic of high school sports, and the subject of regional differences has come up.
My high school, Springfield Southeast High School, Springfield, Illinois, was/is a decently-funded (but certainly not wealthy), urban high school of about 1,500 students. The kids were a mix of poor kids from the ghetto, and rich kids from The Lake. We had football, baseball, basketball, soccer, tennis, golf, swimming & diving (considered one sport), track, and cross country.
I don't have kids, but the local high school in this town (Viburnum, Missouri) is a poor, rural school with only ~250 students, if that. They only have track, basketball and baseball for the boys; and track, basketball and volleyball for the girls.
What about you and your kids?
