In your case, it needs to be. You can't spell or construct a compete, meaningful sentence.

No. A good strong body is one way of having a strong mind. Mediacl studies show that exercise and good body condition is an asset to a growing brain. There are not a lot of subjects provided in Hogh school that should take up so much time. If your schedule is that crowded mybe your are not living a good life. There are other things besides study and you do need a little time off to relax. Exercise is good for your health. Without your body, where would you be? It is the slave of your mind, providing transport, sensual input, nutrition and defense for your brain. Take care of it lest it fail you. You do not have to look like a body builder to be strong. Good exercise helps you heart circulation, breathing system and prevents overweight - and this is Very Important.
I was a runt in High school but I took 4 years of PE. I hated most of it. When I got to University I was faced with PE again. I found that my 4 years of PE in high school put me at the top of my class in University - they were couch potatoes and I was a very lithe, lean, mean runt. I could climb, squat, push-up, pull up, faster and better than all the "Big Guys". I shocked even the gym teacher. A lesson I will never forget.
Go for wrestling, gymnastics, swimming, even weights. But GO. You will be rewarded for the rest of your life.

As much as I hated gym in high school, these days an hour of gym class is the only physical activity that many students get, so I don't think that it is a distraction from academics and it is probably healthy for most students. That said, I think that the only grades should be for effort, because it isn't fair to penalize a brilliant scientist on her/his transcript just because s/he wasn't coordinated, and more effort should be made to make exercise enjoyable, rather than torturing students with it, if they want to turn this into a lifetime habit.

On the university level I think that it is still important to have sports, just as long as the academic requirements to participate in sports stay in place. That is why those were created so that the student doesn't flunk out because they are the star quarterback and never studies.

Yes, if their grades are not good. Their school work is far more important that sports.

Perhaps you mean "sacrificed", and in your case, yes.
