Do kids in gymnastics go to school?

Answer 1

It depends on their level and age. For example, most elementary school kids who are in gymnastics go to public school, because elementary school is not very stressful or time consuming, and they tend to be at a lower level because of their age. However, when you get into high school gymnasts, many competetive female gymnasts homeschool because they may train 6 - 8 hours a day. It is very hard to do that AND attend high school full-time! Some may go to school for a half day and then go to training. This is mostly at the elite (Olympic-level) and almost-elite levels.
