[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]PS - I don't know anyone who takes PE every year in high school, if that's what you are looking for.  [/quote]

Well maybe he'll be the first, or maybe he'll take it first year, and make a bunch of friends and have people to shoot hoops with and go running with after school and he won't need it.  He's a kid who finds academic kinda hard, and sports and music very easy, and I'd love for him to have the things he loves be part of his school day, at least as a freshman.  Who knows what he'll want after that?  Kids change fast.   [/quote]

I was going to mention that some MCPS schools let kids shoot hoops in the gym during lunch.  It depends on the policy of the principal and the PE department.  Someone needs to agree to supervise because occasionally fights break out.  So, you might want to survey DCC schools regarding who allows hoops during lunch and the longevity of the policy.  It is also possible that one of the other DCC schools (not Northwood) might have 8 periods, which would give your son more options.  Since Northwood doesn't have the mandatory Study Skills class (Connections), he would have more flexibility there as well.  I don't think the Northwood marching band is as good as the Einstein marching band, but maybe the Northwood people will have something different to say.  Good luck, OP![/quote]
