[quote=Anonymous]I think the bottom line with high sports is: if playing in HS is important to your child, choose a smaller high school or consider a smaller private if you can afford it. My kids are in a huge suburban HS that is excellent for academics but there is a nice smaller HS in a nearby suburb that is also quite good (just doesn’t offer quite as many APs and foreign language options as ours). We didn’t even consider the sports angle until our kids were in middle school- and we certainly weren’t going to move at that point JUST for that reason. Also the kids had long established friends etc. But maybe we should have considered it earlier on. It is one thing I’d recommend parents consider well ahead of time if their kids enjoy team sports & think they may want to continue in HS. Obviously very few will play in college anyway, but many kids do enjoy the high school sports experience [/quote]
