[quote=Anonymous]I used to teach at the MS my son attended. He was a pretty good athlete, but the school did not have his sport. He had peers who were training in ballet and a student who was training for the Olympics. Those students are great but they miss school a lot, and need a lot of time management. Many are part of travel teams and their plans could change on a dime. It is wonderful to have kids who can multi-task and who have passion, and maybe they can convey that in an essay or an interview, but they usually don't benefit the school by excelling in a field of interest off-campus.
