I don’t remember if it is evident that a teacher is from 9th grade. Someone else can maybe help with that!
I would look into doing an arts supplement. I don’t know what a theater one looks like but most likely a video, resume and letter(s) of recommendation related to theater.
Even if she does not do a supplement, it might be worthwhile to call colleges’ admission offices (don’t talk to a student, I would say) and ask if they take supplementary letters of recommendation from teachers and mentors outside of school. It can make a difference.
Is the guidance counselor going to write about her mental health? Your daughter can say no to that and should- not legal! Were there absences? Hospitals? If she has so many A’s, it looks like she will do fine with transcripts so nothing needs to be said at all by GC or daughter.
Feel free to PM me. Been there.
ps we have experienced teachers being annoyed by 504 plan accommodations, who do not understand the concept of a level playing field, and who we would have worried about in terms of letters of recommendation. There are great teachers out there who do get it but also some who don’t. So I get the concern.
