[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]This is BS. If OP's son is playing for a club team then he is likely playing year round. He is getting practical game experience on a regular basis with and against players who are as good as he is. Even students from GDS have gone on to play sports in college because these days recruitment is club driven, not school driven.[/quote]

PP here. $32, 675 should result in a  parent not having to pay outside organizations for sports.  Unless the sport doesn't exist at the school.   Plus the student has travel team and in-school sports time.

You seem confused. Travel team=club team=outside organization for sports. I a kid is playin travel then they're using an outside org. You also seem to be confused about the realities of athletic recruiting. Whether you pay 32K or send your DC to public the chances of being recruited from your school team alone are extremely slim. The recruiting happens through the club organizations and to suggest that paying 32K should in any way guarantee that your child is recruited is a bit ridiculous. It takes a lot of time, practice and hard work to get a student to that point and that's not going to happen at school.
