[quote=Anonymous]It really depends on the kid. One of mine needed about 7 hours of sleep per day. Is It actually 5 hours as some are suggesting? Or is it more like get out of schoool at 3, go home, change and grab a snack, drive 30-45 minutes and dance from around 4:45 or 5:00 until 8:15? You say that the drive is around 30 minutes so I assume that is on both ends, with a longer drive going to the studio? 8:15 is not too late to finish a sport at that age. Your daughter needs t focus on time management. Pack meals in a thermos for before and after. Homework on the bus and in the car and during breaks. Pack clothes in advance. Keep an organized calendar so she can do projects and assignments in advance and over the weekend. Instead of iphone and youtube in the car it's algbra and english. The dancers I know tend to have exceptional time management skills. Your daughter needs to focus on that.[/quote]
