Question
for budgetary reasons, roosevelt high school is forced to cut some of its extracurricular activities. the schools staff has decided to cut the bowling team, the model rocket club, the french club, and the math league. the schools newspaper, the roosevelt register, ran two student - written editorials about this decision.
editorial 1
roosevelt has had a problem funding all of its extracurricular activities for years. my parents are always complaining about sky - high tax hikes to pay for all of the schools activities, yet the sports and clubs keep getting their budgets cut! part of the problem is that students constantly petition the school to add clubs and sports teams that are either unpopular or do not do well in competitions. the school gives them money that could go toward other clubs and sports that are much more important. i think it was a good idea for the school to cut these activities. the bowling team has never won a state title, and there are only five kids in the model rocketry club. also, the french club takes expensive trips to europe, and the math league came in last in its most recent competition. why should roosevelt take money away from things like football and baseball and give it to activities that are wasting it?
editorial 2

select the correct answer.
which issue seems more important in editorial 1 than in editorial 2?
a. saving money to give to the schools sports teams
b. how club involvement impacts college applications
c. how students and parents can help save the activities
d. finding an alternative solution to fix the problem
Editorial 1 focuses on the idea of re - allocating funds from less important activities (like the ones being cut) to sports teams. It mentions that the school gives money to activities that are "wasting it" instead of giving it to more important things like football and baseball. Editorial 2's content (though not fully shown) likely does not focus on this aspect as much.
