[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My kids do not have AHD, but they had no real difficulty juggling club and school sports with a rigorous academic schedule at our MoCo public. One of them did club soccer and school track and cross country, and took 11 or 12 APs including lots of high level math and science ones. Keep in mind that if your DD is a math person, math and math based science classes will likely be relatively easy for them, and likely less work than some of the history and literature classes. Agree with others that lots of weekend homework is a given in this scenario.

IME, kids who enjoy sports at any level in HS have an easier time handling their academic load and enjoying their lives than those who don’t. The physical and social outlet is really a positive and an antidote to stress, assuming the kid doesn’t end up on a dysfunctional team. [/quote]

I second this. My only caveat is that the reading was hard for my DD to keep up with. We had to help her stay on top of it. DD is reading this. She said don't take AP World History either. [/quote]
