If it were not for band, choir, and art, it would be hard to get my daughter to school every day. She definitely sees school as a necessary evil because she wants to go to college for music performance, so she must get through high school first. She can do the work, and does well when she tries, it’s just getting her to do the work when she’d rather be drawing or playing an instrument that is the problem. I have told her that I know she doesn’t care that much about her classes, but it’s necessary in order for her to get where she wants to be, and she needs to find the motivation to get there. I think she’s finally beginning to accept that as I am starting to see a little improvement.
