My first reason for doing this website is because in my community there are a number of talented athletes that don't make it out of high school because they don't take care of business in the classroom. A number of my friends weren't able to participate in sports because they failed to realize that their academics were more important. Many the ability to be great athletes but they were never encourage to put their education, as a result some dropped out of high school all together. I myself was a student-athlete but there was someone who was always in my corner telling me that my education was more important than any sports dream I would ever have. I believe if there was a bit more of a focus on athletes being students first; athletes would put forth the same effort in their academics as they do in their sports.
