Background: Last year, Jr year for my daughter, who skipped a grade early on and thus seemed immature to her classmates, was in band, and excelled and was a band officer. She was also in ROTC, and had a high rank of Squadron Commander, which means when all the ROTC marched in front of the school, she marched alone!!! She was also the Commander for the jr varsity drill team, and was chosen to be on the varsity drill team for senior year -- she was good! She won an award at the end of the year for Daughters of the American Revolution. Instruments in band? Trumpet for three years and switched to mellophone for marching band and French horn for symphonic band. She earned a Superior rating on her first French horn performance, and it is played with the left hand! And her grades have always been great, in spite of being busy.
So, how would you feel when after Senior year and a huge Senioritis attack, she flunked? Yes, this perfect girl flunked. She's in summer school now.
