[QUOTE="Andy, post: 357344, member: 5096"] Can you or husband call her band leader about this? I can't believe he/she would want a student on stage who obviously can not perform. Unfortunately, many bands/choirs mandate the students attend these ridicously long crowded events to try to draw only the serious students. There should be a policy that students get kicked out each mid-quater and quarter if they are failing it due to lack of practicing and interest. Easier for the band leader to say he/she does not qualify for the "class" than for the parents to go through this. Do whatever you can do to discourage her from joining next year. Many kids think choir or band is the easiest A of all. I am glad she has graded assignments (I don't remember any in choir) so she can't say this is an "easy" class. Makes me wonder what class time is all about - may just be a lot of socializing while the instructor works with other sections. If that is the case, that is why she wants to be there, to goof off with her friends. She sure doesn't appear to be interested in the instrument or doing well with it. [/QUOTE]
