The Brick Township School District recently made a decision that all sports at the middle school levels will not be played next year. This is due to budget cuts in the school district budget. While we recognize that there are tough decisions to be made, we also do not believe that this is an acceptable choice in cuts. We are petitioning for the School Board to take another look at the options, and this includes options that may not include school funds to be used for these sports. We believe that these sports build character and discipline. These sports program cuts will greatly effect the youth of Brick Township and we believe this outweigh the budget concerns. If you agree that the sports programs are not an acceptable budget cut, please sign below.

The days feel long and the board is still not budging on these cuts. We are nearing five hundred signatures so please push this to anyone who cares about our kids having a place on the field.

This is going to hurt the community and the kids so much. Please reconsider this plan.

Ridiculous. Everyone knows sports are essential for growing up.

So unfair to the students who worked so hard to make the team. Find the money somewhere else.

Cutting sports is a huge mistake. Athletics taught me discipline that I still use today.
