My best friend just got kicked off our school's cheer squad cause she failed math. This came as a complete surprise b/c the coach approved her when she showed the coach her report card. The principle informed my coach failing a class wasn't allowed if you play a sport so my coach told my friend to turn in her uniform she was off the squad. My coach said she ran into the bathroom and cried and refused to come out. ( She was also supposed to come home with me and spend the night after the game )
I feel horrible right now; me and her were such good friends on the squad and we dont have any classes together. I called her after the games I cheered at today but brother said she wasn't home. I personally don't know what to say to her; I'm bad at this sorta stuff. We have to wear our uniforms on game days and I'm afraid that will make her feel really bad to see us in uniform. What should I do? Please Please guys, I really need help.

If you don't, the you are gone for good. See if this policy can quickly be implemented in your school. I wish you both the best of luck.
