[quote=Anonymous]OP, FWIW I have a DD who is a sophmore at a FCPS base school and she is burnt out as well. DD came home last night and had a total meltdown over school. Teachers are loading up on quizzes, tests, projects and trying to push in the last missing units at the same time doing AP and SOL prepping. DD sees finals on the horizon and totally lost it saying she can't do this anymore and that HS is just too much. My DD does not mention quitting, but has certainly wished she was home schooled so she does not have to deal with the teachers, workloads, testing, BS courses they are required to take and cliques in HS. I'm just saying this because I think it is a difficult time of year for all high school kids. I think parents have to help kids manage through the stress, but I wish the schools would do more to recognize the pressure on these kids. [/quote]
