[quote=Anonymous]Agree with the PPs to push the issue for this year because it’s such short notice, do the early pickup, and take your time over this coming admissions season to find a better fit if the sport it your/her priority, or consider whether dropping the sport makes more sense. For this year, you can assure the school that you understand it will be more disruptive in future years and will look into alternative solutions, but because of the short notice of the bell change and that you’ve already committed to this sport for this year, you need the 15 minutes for this year. Buy yourself some time to address it more permanently by changing schools or dropping/relocating the sport. I had friends at NCS who participated at elite levels in figure skating, equestrian, and diving, and NCS at the time accommodated the schedule adjustments needed, but that was in MS and HS, not elementary. It was also in the 1990s. [/quote]
