[quote=Anonymous]I am the mother of color at Sheridan who has a son currently in 8th.  I forgot to add one thing.  It all depends on what you are looking for, but our son is an elite athlete (plays soccer at the National level and runs in the Junior Olympics).  That said, we knew that Sheridan's athletics would not have matched his level so we kept the decision of the school separate to his athletic development program.  We had him play soccer at a club outside of school and run track with a club as well.  If you have a kid gifted in that area, club is the way to go and too it allows them the opportunity to bond and make other friends outside of school.  We also wanted him to be able to focus on his academics during school hours and not have to be distracted leaving class early and have that pressure take away from his experience there or to be able to also have the choice to take part playing with a team if he felt to.  This worked out really well for him.  So don't let the aspect of a small school or level of athletics stand in the way of finding a good fit inclusive of an academic and nuturing environment for your child especially during the elementary and middle school years.  Hope that is helpful as well.[/quote]
