I agree, mainly because it will allow more students to participate in sports, orchestras, choirs, etc. You can only have so many members on a sports team, for instance. That leaves a lot of kids out.
Our district in Michigan started with one high school, ended up with three. The teams played each other as well as playing other schools.. The orchestras and choirs were a manageable size for competitions, performances, and transportation to events.
