You say she's half-in/half-out, I say it's the school district.
They shouldn't have. I didn't say she's half anything. I said not in the school then NOT in the school. Anybody that doesn't go to the school for ANY reason shouldn't be a member of ANY school activity or club. It's simple logical sense. If she went to a different school in the same district they wouldn't let her be in the marching band at this school, if she went to a school in a different district they wouldn't let her in, if she went to a private or charter school they wouldn't let her in. Why should she get to join because she's home schooled? Not in the school means not in the school, it's pretty obvious and simple.
