[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Early release is disruptive to the other students and the teacher. Don’t be selfish. If you want the sport, then home school your child. This is what [i][b]some[/b][/i] elite athletes, dancers, musicians, and actors do. [/quote] Let me fix that for you. Some homeschool. Others attend traditional schools that are willing to work with their unique schedules. Others attend less-conventional private schools that were created with kids like this in mind. Early release in elementary school doesn't have to be disruptive. The last 15 minutes of the day in a lot of elementary classrooms is finishing up work, cleaning up, packing up, etc. - new instruction isn't happening then. The student and teacher could have a system where the student knows when to pack up and slip out (or if needed with a silent signal from the teacher). If work isn't done, the student can (and I would say should) just pack that up, too, to finish at home as part of homework.[/quote]
