HPE?  Sorry what is that?[/quote]

Health and PE, I think. It is a pretty common class for kids to take during the summer because it opens an elective space during the school year. [/quote]

Taking PE in the summer is bad. PE should be daily all throughout HS. Kids need the movement and the mental break. It also serves as a segregator for ‘nerds’ and ‘non nerds’.

If you take some hard course during the summer, you still have the time to exercise and do social relaxing activities. If you overload yourself with hard subjects throughout the school year you’re in for a spectacular burnout.

As per geometry, I’ve seen kids take it cold during the summer and I’ve seen ones who have taken some outside enrichment during the prior year or semester and it was not all new to them. I would not recommend the going into it cold unless your kid is really good and interested in math, no need to be a genius. [/quote]

If you take both music and a foreign language, then with PE during the school year, you get no electives.  That's the reason to take PR during the summer. [/quote]
