[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Another band parent here. No, you don’t just miss a performance or competition.

But you plan for it. DS has essay drafts done over the summer, polished them in English class and has all applications done and submitted. Took some pushing to make him work on them this summer, but he’s so happy to be done and focused on school and band and enjoying senior year.[/quote]

Band parent here and we did this. And is has been doable.  CA done, all the requests and paperwork done. Supplemental apps done for EA (no ED).  Except the flipping common app easy. It’s going back and forth to the English teacher and it’s just not right or frankly very good. And my kid is insisting they can make it work.  They can’t and they need to scrap it.   They have a draft of another option that the English teacher loves and that will be fine with some cleanup based on her edits.  But they don’t want to use it because they are sure they can make their first choice work. They can’t. And eventually they’ll give up and use the other one.   Fortunately, one EA school is a safety.  And one is the 8th choice out of 10 schools. It doesn’t need to be brilliant. It needs to be solid. Then we have until until January 1. [/quote]
