[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Virginia Valor Football club costs $2,700 per year of travel soccer for the U9-U12 category. May be some parents think math supplementation is better than travel soccer. Or should we be stigmatizing those that invest in supplemental math/science. Pay to play or an investment in your kid?[/quote] Math supplementation is fine! There's nothing wrong with signing your kid up for that if that's where their genuine interest lies. But parents should STOP feeling as though that money and time that they invest is going to be directly rewarded with a spot at TJ, which is a publicly funded educational opportunity that is supposed to serve the entirety of the catchment area.[/quote] Exactly! I like math supplementation and personally feel that's a lot more useful than travel soccer. In addition, there's no equivalence between unlocking public school opportunities and some sports activities that some people choose to do.[/quote]
