Hi everyone,
Do any of your gymmies attend school on a modified schedule (allowed to come late, leave early, or both) so they can make their practice commitments? We're looking at that for DD next year - she'll be going into 6th grade, doing 2-a-days, and hopefully L8 by then. There's no way she can attend a 6 or 7-hour school day. My husband and I have a lot of questions, and we'd appreciate the chance to talk to other parents who've done this.
Also, how many school days do your kids miss each year because of travel and competitions? We may be looking at quite a few of those.
Thanks in advance, and thanks to those who responded when I asked about this in my Introduction!
