[quote=Anonymous]Hello! I apologize that this is such a targeted post. My whole family is in disagreement about where my rising 9th grader will end up next year and I was wondering if any other Langley parents had experience with either girls' golf or JV Cheer. She is very socially motivated but neurodiverse and quirky, and I am nervous about her finding her people at such a big school. She has had a mixed experience in Cooper AAP - definitely has a group of friends now but it was a struggle to get there.

Back to the sports - I think that athletics are a great way to build community and was looking for input on these two teams specifically. Will they take anyone or do you have to try out/is it competitive? She is not a natural athlete but does have experience with both golf and cheer.

Sorry for the helicopter-parent type post. I'm just trying to get a sense of what things would be like if she did end up at Langley and if she would have realistic opportunities to be with peers, or if the idea of sports is not realistic because she'll be too anxious/scared to try out. At Cooper she did not pursue Model UN or debate, which she loved in 6th grade, because she was too anxious of getting rejected and there was just nothing we could get her to do to give it a try.
