[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]But our kids (in DC) have had to jump through hoops to get into activities since elementary school. Our public elementary school had try outs (and cuts) for 4th and 5th grade basketball as well as XC. You need to apply to be on the high school yearbook and other clubs. It is a really distorted experience [/quote] DP. We (reluctantly) moved away from DC when our kid was 12. One of the unexpected benefits was the amazing access to EC’s in our new area (a small city in a region not known for education). Allowed our kid to explore their interests and dive deep in certain activities. Huge win.[/quote]
