swimming. --<3

I hate swimming.
Especially in school.

I do not understand why it is a REQUIREMENT
that all students take swim class unless given a doctors note.
Most kids just make up an excuse for the doctor to sign the note.
It's ridiculous. No one wants to swim in the disgusting pool.
& I got a 66 average one quarter in gym just because I did not participate in swimming. Because it's disgusting. And 20 minutes is a lot of time to get ready, I guess. But not long enough when you have to take a shower and all.

Especially if you have swimming first block. Then, you have to walk around all day smelling like chlorine. I think swimming should NOT be a mandatory unit for gym class. It's gross and disgusting and not fun at all. It brings down a lot of people's averages who are trying to achieve good academic standing.
Well, most guys do swimming. But like...70% of girls do not.
So, what's the point of swimming if basically no one does it or actually wants to do it anyways!?

I agree, Students should have another option besides swimming.

I see some of your points about swimming in phys. ed., but I do think that teaching people how to swim is an important part of the class. Who knows how many lives have been saved because of the skills learned?
- Great topic!
