[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Or will they just stop doing after-school clubs? I’m curious how important those are to the middle school experience, as my kids are all still in elementary. [/quote] After school this week, I saw piles (had to literally step over some, ha) of kids loving finally finding “their people” at D&D club. Drama and music kids rehearsing for the MS musical. Kids painting sets and props for the musical. Community service activities. Tons of kids getting tutoring from their teachers, for free, getting both help and connection. The positive energy was palpable (the musical looks great!). The MS after school program is the heart of middle school.[/quote] Yes let’s continue to make kids get up at 5:30 am so they can have this after school program. Get a grip. E will shift by only 30 minutes and be a win win for all. They can still have their previous after school activities, just half an hour later.[/quote]
