PARENTS OF 8th Graders‼️
FREE ADVICE AS YOU PLAN TO SEND YOUR KIDS TO HIGH SCHOOL!
1) Make your decision of where your child goes for High School a big decision. Research the schools and see if athletics is just as important to them as it is to you. See their Alumni and see if they’re graduating seniors were happy with the program. They were in for four years because your kid will be going into that same program.
2) If your son daughter is an athlete, you should highlight on their social medias where they are going and for what main sport they are going for. If they want to play at the next level, they have to start preparing for that
3) When you’re looking at high school research coaches ask if coaches are willing to play lower classmen of if they are talented and physically ready for it.  See if there is a lot of politics involved into the school that you would be sending your son or daughter. Again, this is a major decision. Do not take it lightly. 
4) Remember where you say your child goes is YOUR choice. Do not get caught into the trend where kids want to go to school and play with their friends. It is your job to make sure you place them in a school that’s going to be better for their academic and athletic growth.
High School is a big deal. DO NOT commit to your local public school without doing your homework.
