[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Students who entered TJ with a sports-first mindset realize by the end of freshman year or at the latest by mid sophomore, that they can’t continue to allocate prime evening hours to sports if they start out with a shakey standing in academically. Especially true for team sports. In fact, more students involved in sports have transferred back to their base school than those from any other extracurricular activity. TJ academic demands don’t offer the same flexibility that base school gen ed provides for competitive sports participation. Coaches reiterate as well - take care of academics first. [/quote] My kid is a 3 season athlete and I don't think he knows a single kid on one of his teams that transferred back. So not sure that your logic here stands. [/quote] This is the same person who posts TJ statements as if they are factual but they are absolutely not.[/quote]
