[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The girls’ sports teams are just as strong - if not stronger- than the boys’. And honestly, the school really does have something for everyone. My DC isn’t sporty at all, but they love SJC and are involved in lots of academic and arts-focused activities. At the same time, they’ve made great friends with plenty of athletic kids too, including some star athletes. The idea that students are all boxed into separate groups doesn’t really hold true at a school like SJC. [/quote]

I, too, have a DD applicant. She plays several sports but is not a star. My concern is that at SJC she won't be able to play because the teams are so intense.  Is this a fair concern?[/quote]

This would be the issue at any high school in the area, public or private. Sports are competitive in this area, full stop. Every school (SJC included) has a couple of "no cut" teams. If she wants to be on a team but doesn't make her sport(s) of choice team(s), I would encourage her in this direction.[/quote]

Which girls sports at SJC are the most intense in terms of requiring year-round commitment, club play with the coach's team, that sort of thing?[/quote]
