[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Op - I also don’t understand how kids continue to play, train and practice at a high level and keep their grades up. Kids go to a private school with no retakes on tests. Lots of reading and math already in lower elementary. I was a pretty decent athlete. Recruited to play in college. But I was a science major at a very hard school and my parents told me grades came first and I had to graduate in 4 years no matter what. I couldn’t do both so I didn’t play sports. Clearly there are people out there smarter than me because I couldn’t maintain a 4.0 and play high level college sports. [/quote] Well, elementary and middle school isn’t that demanding. Most kids get relatively no homework until high school. Some of the better private schools give some, but even so, it isn’t that time consuming in middle and elementary yrs[/quote]
