[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote]SSA has some transfers/reclasses from NOVA public’s.[/quote]

the VA privates in the IAC have a unique advantage over the remaining IAC schools as they can take kids from publics have them re-classify a year (if the parents have the $$$ to spend an extra year of HS tuition) and the kid doesn't have to sit out a year. I find it odd that some parents will have their kids play 5 years of HS athletics in particular for a lacrosse scholarship which is very far from being a full-ride.

Maryland privates require kids to sit-out a year from athletic competition if they opt to "re-classify" a year as you can only have 4 years of athletic eligibility in high school. [/quote]

What about those kids that are held back in elementary school?  I know a few kids on my son’s travel team that repeated eighth grade, and started playing high school ball at MD privates as 16 year old freshmen.  Where there is a will, there is a way.  [/quote]

Not true on either for Maryland.

The WCAC and others do allow for a one-time transfer beginning in 9th grade through 12th and are allowed to play varsity sports immediately.  They can then transfer again but then must play JV or sit out a season.

In public to public school transfers, there is a 4 year rule in general but there are several exemption possibilities due to injury and change of address et al. [/quote]
