Do you need to keep doing this every year?
PE is two years.

There are two electives in 9th and 10th. Foreign Language and Band/Orchestra/Theatre/Chorus Are what many students do. If the student wants another elective before 11th grade, then doing Summer PE would be a way to add one.


Other than student interest, how does doing just two years of Band/Orchestra/Theatre/Chorus help? contributes to college major or college app?

+1
Summer PE is a really important route if you have a band kid.

But if 9th graders are far ahead they can take more advanced CS and science classes that year. I don’t think that is super common though.
"far ahead" in what sense?
