[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Mine absolutely would if they weren’t in an IB program that doesn’t leave any free slots for electives in 11th and 12th. [/quote] This is one reason (along with commute and other reasons) my current 9th grader decided against an IB program and also the CAP program. Band is important to them, and those programs were too constrained in their requirements.[/quote] My IB kid took summer school classes to open up elective slots to allow for orchestra all 4 years. Not a prodigy by any means, but it brings him joy and I am here for that.[/quote] This is what we plan to do. Child will start summer classes before entering 9th for credit in summer so they can do more electives.[/quote] I’m the first PP. Mine tried to make that work, but with only two elective slots, those were taken up by IB language and ToK. Taking grad requirements over the summer allowed 2 years, but not 4, because they don’t offer IB courses over the summer. [/quote]
