This is often a misreported number because most studies do not include NCAA Division III, NAIA and all Junior Colleges. If you were to take the total number of High School Participants (7,092,999) and the Total Number of College Participants (581,077) you are looking at more than 8%. Obviously that is a rough number and doesn't take into account graduating seniors to available freshmen positions but it gives you a ballpark number. It also ranges greatly by sport.

I think sports help because if you have the policy you have to get good grades to keep playing then you work harder.
Depends on size of school

There is no necessity at all for canceling high school sports. High school athletes and none sports students all benefit from Varsity sports as well a sports played in gymnasiums. Gymnasium sports help build an athlete's body and also, sports at the high school level develops a camaraderie among the student athletes.

Yes.
Around about 1 third of High school students but it also depends on the type of school and where it also located.
My guess would be 92%
