In the water?  That is tough for high school.  When do they do homework?  [/quote]

DC schedule.  School finishes close to 3, on the water by 4 - till 6 or 6.30.   Getting out of G'town to Rockville, about an hour, so we're settling in the house by 7.30/8.   Off to bed until 11 or so.  HW from 11 - till 3 or later depending, or don't go straight to bed (if they have energy), and stay up till 12 or 1.  So on a good night DC gets 4+, on a great night 6. It's a lot easier for kids who live closer to where they practice.  Some schools practice in the morning - now that's tough.[/quote]

This is slightly off topic or maybe severely off topic, but the lack of sleep thing might help explain something that has baffled me. The girls on my SD's crew team…for how much they exercise (and i know they work really hard) seem to have a higher amount of body fat than you'd expect. I'm not being critical and I think women should love their bodies, it's just an observation. Because chronic sleep deprivation wreaks havoc with metabolism, maybe this helps explain why my SD and her teammates aren't as cut as I thought they'd be.

Also I can verify that what the above poster says about sleep. My SD usually gets a max of 6.[/quote]
