Should I quit band next year?

Be the band quitter, like me. Study hall is much more useful for me. I’m not wasting my Friday night marching on the field, but that’s just my view. Band was very boring starting this year for me.

As @DigitalKing said, quitting isn’t a bad idea at all! I’m not going to practice 2 hours a night and have 3 checkoffs a week. I have more important stuff to do. Also, I have a mom who won’t stop whining and a loud trumpet and 8 at night didn’t help her moodiness.

I know some people look down on Study Hall/Free Period, but if you have a rigorous schedule it doesn’t hurt to have a period to chill, get ahead, review, or catch up. Got a 78 and 83 on my first two HA2 tests. Dropped band because HS Soccer season is busy, and I haven’t had to deal with that BS while dealing with other classes, and I’ve done significantly better in all subjects.
