[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Agree that club sports and other time-consuming but mindless extracurriculars are what's pushing out actual college prep activities like reading & analyzing multiple difficult several hundred page novels and more deriving of mathematical proofs and immersive academic activities like independent studies. Our current grind culture (team sports and checking off all these boxes) is crushing imagination and critical thinking to dust.[/quote] 💯 My kid would love to read more, but she has to volunteer and do a school club and show leadership and uniqueness and originality and prep for SAT and get a 4.0 and blah blah blah blah [/quote]
