I have three 8th graders who are cheerleaders.
The mandatory JH cheer camp is the first 3 days of full band (these three will be at rookie week the prior week). They have paid for it and it's out of town.
I have the option of leaving any 8th grader in JH band, rather than promote to HS band. We always "hold a few back" and it works well!
All three play clarinet. They play well, are physically coordinated, responsible and mature. We need them in HS pretty bad.
Any time I excuse one kid, others begin to believe they need to be excused for something.
Do any of you have ideas or options for these three??
