[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It sounds as though the issue isn't that he's not doing sports. It's that he's not doing sports at school. I've been trying to figure out a middle school that starts at 5th, has enough no cut sports for all the 5th graders, and doesn't make sports mandatory the way Bullis or Landon or Sidwell does, but I'm failing. Given that, I think it's likely that there will be other boys not doing sports, and he just needs to find them. Does the school have things like choir or drama during the same time period? Most schools that put a high value on sports these are two different time periods. [/quote] Congressional in Falls Church starts middle school in 5th. In 5th and 6th, sports are optional. They are required in 7th and 8th, but my non sporty child chose fitness (typical exercise stuff) for one season and running for the others. There are plenty of slow runners, and it hasn't seemed to have social ramifications. [/quote]
