 Will the school not excuse the absence? Both my middle and high school both excused any horse show or rodeo as long as I had proof I was entered. I have friends from other towns who also got their absences excused. I even got mine to count as a gym credit. And I do not live in a horse community.

In our school district there is a difference between excused absence and perfect attendance. So even if it is excused, you are still absent. Perfect attendance meant you were there all day every day. Truthfully, that is the only special recognition that some kids can get from the school. They aren't athletic, super smart or have any outstanding talents. NOT AT ALL saying this Bigfoot's daughter's reason because it's obvious its not, just saying for some kids it is, like my sister and I.

I totally feel your pain and the agony of the decision. Last year, was my daughter's first year and we started late. We never dreamed she would qualify for Jr. High Nationals but she did. The problem was she was also dedicated to dance, approx. $600 in costumes already bought, all the routines done, part of a choosen line... well recital was the same weekend as move into nationals. She went to recital.

All I am going to say now is, it is one of the biggest regrets I have as a parent. She regrets it too. She has danced for 12 years/ 12 years of recitals BUT only had one chance at Jr. High Nationals.
