[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote] [b]FWIW, my kid's counselor in APS said she was fine in satisfying the elective requirement with being in the top band all 4 years. [/b]Really, the 'advanced" vs "regular" diploma designation is pretty meaningless, more about encouraging kids to take what they should for college prep.[/quote] My FCPS kids weren't in orchestra, but my good friend's child made the top orchestra freshman year, and received the same advice from their FCPS counselor. So it seems like at least the requirement is NOT unfair to those kids. Still a dumb requirement, IMO, but at least not penalizing the kids who make top band and orchestra as 9th graders. [/quote] Do those kids still qualify for advanced diplomas?[/quote]
