[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I would never have a kid miss 3 weeks in a school year. That’s crazy! Unless they are competing at Olympic level events but usually at that level they are homeschooled. For a regular kid that’s somewhat good, I would say 3-5 days per year would be the max that I’d allow. My kid is D1 level good and that is the max that we allow to miss. So I guess I’m agreeing to the Moco regulation listed above. [/quote] In high school this isn’t so unusual, particularly if your child is looking to compete in college. To some extent these higher level competitions are a necessary part of their collegiate package. In elementary school there really aren’t multiple meets where a they miss 4-5 days of school at a time. Generally swimmers miss 2-3x per school year each time between 4-5 days, then junior year it’s necessary to attend college camps/visits.[/quote]
