[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, have your kid do both band and a language. Why are you making them choose just one? [/quote] I’m not making them choose. They definitely want to take band. They would also like to take other art classes. And a foreign language. The choice is theirs, but I don’t think there is space for everything. Particularly if they have to take a tech class in middle school.[/quote] Require the foreign language (which an IB school should already be required to do) and let them choose the last slot. See what is available after school — our school has jazz band and art club as options. And consider more prestigious options like PVYO and MCYO if your kid is serious. [/quote]
