[quote=Anonymous]Last summer I had big plans to make my rising freshman son be an involved HS student. The reality ended up being a compromise- he did some activities Fall and Winter, but this Spring he comes home after school - works out in our basement and plays Xbox. There is no community service, volunteering or extra books being read. I have a new respect for the kids/families that play year round HS sports/theater/band. These are really long school days. Some kids aren’t cut out for a full day of school plus practice/travel to a game/rehearsal that goes late. OP your son sounds like he’s doing the schedule that’s comfortable for him.[/quote]
