[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Join a fall sport. The preseason practices mean your DC will start school with friends across different grade levels. The cross country team is large, coed, and has a phenomenal coach who cultivates a strong sense of community. Novice runners are welcomed and encouraged. Highly, highly recommend!! Also, GDS does a great job preparing new 9th graders. Definitely attend the Bridge program in addition to the 9th-grade orientation over the summer. Congratulations to your DC! [/quote] This is great advice. Our DC went into 9th grade at GDS not knowing a soul, and it took a while before they felt socially comfortable. But DC will now say that going to GDS was the best decision of their life. And ditto about the cross country team and the coach.[/quote]
