[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Basketball achievements are pride of NoVa students. It must be talked about and celebrated just like academic  TJ student accomplishments. Both require hardwork from student and family resources.  [/quote]
I agree we need to respect and appreciate student efforts based on their own interests, instead of forcing them to change those interests and see them struggle.  [/quote]
I coach basketball in our recreational league, and my DC in AAP may someday apply to get into TJ.  I can imagine the hardwork students put in to prepare for a successful TJ experience, if admitted.  Similar to academic preparation in middle school, [b]basketball also takes a lot of effort if not more in terms of player's personal commitment and family resources [/b]towards league fees, training classes, tournament fees, sports gear, etc. Nothing is free, everything needs to be paid for and valuable time needs to be invested. Behind every successful student player is their entire family supporting them.    [/quote]
Wishing your DC all the best.  Academics is same, takes family commitment and resources as you highlight.  My DC does basketball too and in AAP as well.  [/quote]
