[quote=Anonymous]Why narrow the discussion to just sports when the OP pointed out that multiple activities exclude? The discussion is about an atmosphere of exclusion for 6th graders that could be perpetuated in older grades. Good point about JV and Varsity levels in HS. Is it possible to have intermural programs for MS that 6th grade could participate in? I am just interested in the whole system. I come from a state(NJ) that does Pk-8. Kid's can do sports and activities starting in 6th. The whole idea of excluding an entire cohort of students because of the size of the population or the size of the child seems counter to modern social and educational theory, especially in county with the types of resources of MCPS. The idea that there is something wrong with someone's kid for asking these simple questions or worse that someone is a "nerd" for running cross-country is so ridiculous.[/quote]
