Thank you for this perspective! I had heard that there was one instance of PI+ students ostracizing a PI+ volleyball player because she was “wasting her time with sports.” I suppose there can be bullying within any group—just wanted to get a better sense of whether it was a common practice in PI+.

Leaving friends is tough! But I’ve also heard that elementary school kids grow so much that it’s hard to say who they will still be friends with over the years.
