Why does your kid need to swim through high school, if there are no specific time goals or purpose? Doesn't he/she need more time for academics in high school? You know, teens can also swim non-competitively with US Masters, and it is way cheaper on drop-in basis. 
Children are so overtasked by the parents signing them up for everything, even when there is no clear perspective in mind. Children have no time to focus on anything seriously, and time is the most valuable thing in life!
Then, in the end of the high school you see an outcome: a student who "studied everything a little bit": played some piano, learned some math, swam at a local seniors group, etc. So called "well rounded person", but this is not what paves way to success in this country.  Unless you are already independently wealthy and your kids are born "trust babies", only top performance is in demand. [/quote]

High School Team is reachable and he needs a goal that can energize him to do practices 5 times/week.   The process itself is to train kids to be disciplined.  Later in adult life, whatever he does, blue or white collar jobs, he will be doing fine.   That is my definition of success.  [/quote]
