[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My super social, sports kid did 9th Grade at Arlington Tech and moved to our neighborhood school for 10th. He loved the small school and class sizes. But it was hard to play sports and socially it wasn’t for him. [/quote] This has been my sons experience, his freshman year lost a few kids this way, even though they will likely still travel to tech for the classes they want. I would LOVE for you to give up the spot because my other kid has their heart set on it but needs to clear the wait list. If your child is interested in either STEM or one of the specialties (aviation, vet, ect) its is set up for it, but it is small. you can still do/visit your home high school for sports (crew is very popular). I was concerned about my son missing all the normal high school experiences, but he still wanted tech. In retrospect, he did not do typical social middle stuff anyway, not very many extra curriculars like I did.[/quote]
