I don't know what your restrictions are, but I would highly encourage your kid to do first period language 3 at the high school. He or she will have to wake up a bit earlier, that's all. And the advantage is that they will have a smooth transition to high school next year!

Appreciate this! Restrictions are a combination of parent work schedules, home/work/bus stop locations, and medical needs for the student. Also, due to split articulation - the high school is not the high school the student will attend. It would be a huge logistical challenge and I'm not sure it's worth it.[/quote]

My teen with severe ADHD was able to walk to his bus stop. My other teen with medical needs too. Are your kid's medical issues that restrictive?
And for the high school choice, can't you pick the one your kid will eventually end up in? That seems like a reasonable request.

[b]We share custody[/b] and live in different, non-contiguous clusters so the bus transportation is only accessible to the kid a couple of days a week.

I think we will probably switch to the other language next year, as much as I am annoyed about it. I would have waited to start language until 7th grade if I had known it was likely this would happen, but that was not communicated to us when we were parents to a rising 6th grader.

Any way to keep the kids in one place during the school week? Moving them like this must be hugely disruptive. Can it be weekday at one place, and weekend at the other? Or can the kids stay in one location, and the parents switch around?
