[quote=Anonymous]I think the activities are kind of weak and generic. Nothing about that list suggests any sort of long term passion or any sort of emerging interest in a particular area. Plus none of these things look like they require a time commitment other than an hour or two a week—other than the sports. But, private school varsity sports are whatever unless your kid is a recruited athlete in one of them. Schools know some private schools require 2-3 sports seasons per year and that “varsity” isn’t meaningful in and of itself because the bar for making it on to the roster is low bc of small school size and the school requiring participation. Our private had uncoordinated, disinterested kids who often skipped practices who could claim to be three sport varsity athletes. I think more focus on finding direction and worry about the school list in a year.[/quote]
