Assignment task: Leslie Knope at Pawnee City Parks Department wants to know whether her new after school program for kids improves elementary school children's interest in sports and exercise. She compares the interest in sports and exercise of kids in her town, Pawnee, to kids in the next town over, Eagleton, where they do not have this after school program.

B. How could the confound be fixed for Scenario A? Be sure to tell me what technique you are using (constancy, repeated measures, randomization, elimination, or balancing), as well as how you would apply that technique to this specific scenario, and how that would fix this confound.
