[quote=Anonymous]My DS is in 9th grade in FCPS. Three sports- cross country, basketball and then track in the spring. Also interested in math, finishing Algebra 2H. Also has an instrument that he plays, but practices only a few times per week outside of school. Things have been unusually because of COVID and since this is his first year in HS, I can’t say what a normal schedule would be like in-person. But can provide some insight- first meets are long, 3:30 to 8 pm, but this has only been once per week. Since school is on an A/B schedule, he can plan ahead and get extra work done before meet days. Second, practices don’t go til 7 pm, right now they go til 5pm. So that gives him plenty of time to shower and get homework done after coming home. Lastly, he knows school come first, so if grades drop, we would require him to pull back from sports. So far, grades are great. We will take things one season at a time. [/quote]
