[quote=Anonymous]The amount of homework can end up the same at two different schools depending on the classes and teachers he gets at each grade level. If he's not afraid of the challenge at the more academic school, let him try. He can always transfer to less rigorous. Also, so many of these kids are elite middle school athletes who want to play multiple sports and then when they get to high school, things can change in terms of how much time they want to spend on multiple sports...it's not just juggling the homework, also consider interest in clubs and other ECs, social life. And as they start to play against essentially grown men and women on the varsity teams, you see more injuries. And there's the whole body type consideration colleges recruit for. Read the string of emails that started about Sidwell vs St Albans in this forum and then moved to the Older Teens forum.[/quote]
