This is great news, this gives kids who qualify for AIME time to prepare. My ds qualify for the first time this year and felt like he had to cram for AIME.

Random questions: a let's-distract-MercyA poll

I have a huge stack of tie dye t-shirts from my dd, her swim team has tie dye parties before every big championship meet. -
Unfortunately, I think this move will create more inequality and a bigger divide between the haves and have nots. The PS parents in my area, who can afford extra math classes, have their kids enrolled in after school, weekend math classes, or summer school classes at private school and learning academies.

The violence against Jews been getting worse. After the Jewish synagogue shooting in Poway, my dh told the kids not to wear anything that identifies them as Jewish or tell people that they are Jewish. Which was very sad for my son, who is very proud of being Jewish.

Tuition for online classes
Swimmer1112 replied to Swimmer1112's topic in General Education Discussion Board
After asking more questions, I discovered that the class is targeting high income Asians. It’s an AP Physics/ F=ma prep class. The teacher has a reputation of getting kids to USAPhO camp. She told he that his class is highly sought after. I think that’s the reason for the high tuition. -
How much is reasonable to pay for online classes, ie AP Physics. My friend said she was going to sign her son up for AP Physics with a provider in the Bay Area in CA. She told my the tuition is $2700 for an one semester AP Physics 1 class, which seems kinda high. Or is it just expensive because it’s the Bay Area.

The PTA at my dn’s school has alcohol basket or wine tasting baskets at their spring fundraiser every year. My dd’s swim team will also include wine tasting, boating on the bay and a bottle of wine or champagne, and also baskets with alcohol as well. It’s fairly common to see alcohol as part of a raffle in my area.

I know a couple tennis families at Elite. They are very flexible and will work with athletes. We are a swim family and they have been very good at accommodating swim meets. -

What kind of camps, volunteering, work and other activities are your kids doing this summer? we are considering outdoor camps, surfing and sports camps. Normally we would go to math camp or chess camp, but the ones I looked at are all online. My son is done with one for now. He needs some in person activities. Ds13 will be going to camp, scouts for 1week and surf camp so far Dd18 has an online internship, with software company.
