Parents hold meeting to discuss MHS schedules

A number of music boosters and other parents of Marshall High School students concerned over their perception of a new class schedule expected this fall that creates conflicts for music students wanting to take AP courses met at the Marshall Activity Center last week to share their concerns with two board members. Dan Stulberg and Janice Darling attended the meeting in which Music Booster President Jack Reed, along with band and orchestra directors Jeremy Root and Justin Valla, rapped their observations of an apparent new rule that would force students to either choose music or advanced placement classes but not both as they have been able to do in the past. Root noted that some students will go to band camp this summer only to return to school next month to learn they are not in band. See more on this story in the July 5 edition of The Chronicle.
