Isabel Gottlieb’s Graduation Fiasco

Posted by Eric at 9:34 am. Filed under: General

Bow High School, in New Hampshire, will not let Miss Gottlieb graduate, because she the varsity athlete is shy one gym class credit. They suggested she drop A.P. Biology or Calculus so she could fulfill the P.E. requirement.

Though Isabel Gottlieb is a good student, a trumpet player in the school band and holds varsity letters in three sports, she discovered last fall she was one gym class shy of having enough credits to graduate next month.

She asked for a waiver, but the school wouldn’t budge, telling her instead she had to drop a class to take gym.

“Why would I drop an AP biology class to take P.E.?” the 18-year-old said. “It’s just not on my priority list.”
