How would a non-sporty boy with other interests (music, newspaper, stem) do?[/quote]

Upper school has a robust music program with both orchestra and jazz ensamble, the program director is outstanding. The newspaper is award-winning and has been for decades and in terms of STEM, there is a healthy Comp Sci offering including Engineering and a good robotics program.[/quote]

but how about fitting into the current 8th grade class for this sort of boy?[/quote]
I’m the PP with a daughter. There are plenty of non-sporty boys who do other things.  I’d even say the sporty boy types are a minority. And even the sporty ones are ultimately just dorky middle schoolers who happen to like sports. Every kid has his/her own thing. They all seem to get along well even if they are into different things.  [/quote]

thanks[/quote]
