[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I'm shocked that something like choir was a class to begin with, and more shocked that an actual class was held outside of school hours.  It's not just inequitable, it's absurd.  Things like that are extra curricular at almost every school district in the country.  It's bizarre that Westfield was giving academic credit for it.  It's like if being on the football team was a class.[/quote]

What are you talking about? Choir is a class during the day at every single school in the county [/quote]

I said country.  Not county.  Choir is probably a high school elective in the county.  During the day.  In most places choir is competitive and not a class at all, but an extra curricular.  If it's not during the day, it's extra curricular, period.  No one should be getting credit and a GPA boost for being in an extra curricular.[/quote]

You don't know what you are talking about.

Did you go to high school in the USA?

Choir is a graded class in virtually every high school in the USA, and has been for a very long time.

Heck, my local small exburb high school in the midwest had choir as graded classes since it was built in the 1950s.[/quote]
