[quote=Anonymous]It's not "common" for kids to be bused to high school for language for language. There were exactly 3 kids who did this at DD's large middle school. The others took a year off or tried another language. As someone else pointed out some kids end up doing a private weekend language school for Spanish or French and then jumping back into the same language in high school. In addition to OP's families own logistical and medical challenges you really miss out a lot by not being at your middle school first period. There are often activities like band or clubs that meet before school and you miss the morning announcements which leaves kids out of the loop. In MCPS having to wake up an hour earlier for HS is also not really healthy for many kids. I would not downplay the negatives of doing this.[/quote]
