[quote=Anonymous]The short answer is yes, if your kid is interested in engaging in a particular sport during middle school years, go private. First off, MCPS only offers teams for 7th and 8th grade, so no school sport for 6th graders. Second, even for those sports, they are only offered for one season, and it's usually a short one. Finally, as PP said, some are super competitive teams to make -- soccer especially -- while others might be no cut (like XC) or less competitive, but again, the seasons are so short that if your kid really wants to engage in team sports on a sustained basis, MCPS MS sports won't offer that. On the bright side, the area offers lots and lots of team sport options, some of which are crazy competitive, while others -- like MSI rec soccer -- have a place for just about everyone. [/quote]
