[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, it sounds like your son wants to prioritize baseball but play basketball at least for a bit.

IMO, if your kids can get in,Sidwell would offer the best opportunity for your daughter to play multiple sports and try new sports while maximizing baseball and at least JV/Freshman basketball. Additionally, other than basketball, literally any other sport would offer the ability for your son to try out, play on JV and work through to Varsity.[/quote]

I don’t know about Sidwell being the best bet. I have a daughter that goes to one of the all girls Catholics and plays three sports. If your daughter is moderately athletic, tries, and cares, she can play 3 varsity sports by junior year at just about any of the private schools in the dc area.

It’s the boy that is going to be a challenge. You give good advice. Find a mid level school and have him work through a program. You’re not just going to show up at Gonzaga and make the basketball team if you don’t play year round.[/quote]
