Middle school sports in Chesapeake are on the chopping block.

School leaders are trying to cut more than nine million dollars from Chesapeake's budget.

A public meeting was held to talk about possible elimination.

Dozens of parents are calling foul, especially with talks about cutting middle school sports.

Besides middle school sports, Chesapeake’s superintendent is also proposing to axe adult education, behind-the-wheel driver's education classes along with 30 jobs.
