[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]The only thing I suggested to my child was taking PE over the summer to free up and elective so he could take band and be declined and is quitting band in HS :( He likes PE as a break during the day. He did say in the future he would likely take the personal finance class over the summer. He is in 8th grade AAP and taking geometry this year. Next year he will take all honors classes which he did pick on his own and own his own wants to get the advanced diploma. I feel very strongly that now that he’s in 9th grade he has to make his own schedule and I can only offer suggestions. For success long term I think he (and the rest of them) need to learn independence generally. [/quote] Finally a sensible answer. You can guide your kids, but yes they need to learn to start making decisions on their own. Besides the PE stuff to free up for electives (and fun ones like choir or band!), there will be not summer classes for my kids. [/quote]
