I didn't participate in any Eastern athletics, and I had no interest in them. I know a few friends who played girl's softball and there were a few boys who played soccer or baseball. Yes, they're involved, but not everyone is.

Lol maybe it's because Eastern taught me to write well, with my audience in mind with a formal voice.

HGCP, highly gifted center program, CES, center for enriched studies, it's the same. I have siblings who go to CES. And parents who talk about the changes.
