Sample Persuasive Essay Conclusion
Sports in school has been a topic discussed by all
sides over the years. Many may suggest that sports
keep students engaged in learning, that sports force
students who want to play to be academically
involved. This is sometimes the case. But yet again it
sends the wrong message: learning is merely a vehicle
to playing. Is that what education is about? And the
requirements to play are always so pathetic anyway.
Pass most of your classes. Is that all we expect of our
youth? No, the time-honored tradition of sport and
school is no longer viable. Schools in America have
fallen too far behind to be able to sustain any level of
success while hiring teachers who are either bogged
down by coaching, or simply incapable of teaching
while being highly capable of coaching. The priorities
of schools must be to teach students skills, ones that
don't involve a bat and a ball.
Which of these sentences
from the sample conclusion

A. Sports in school has been a topic
discussed by all sides over the years.
B. Is that all we expect of our youth?
