I think some kids respond better to classes like band, choir, gym, or just any class that requires hands on learning. Sometimes, the problem may be that the student is just bored, along with various other factors such as lack of interest in the subject, dislike for the teacher, etc. It would be impractical to pull a kid from a class that they are doing well in and may cause even more behavioral problems. Also, this kind of goes along with what we talk about in our MUS 110 class: everybody learns differently and teachers should find ways to make sure that all of the students have equal opportunites to learn.

I think its competely wrong to take a student out froma music class. We all have many intellegences, and for some that may be music. Some people are going to be gifted in the art of music making, where as others are good at math. The schools need to start recognizing this and if they truly want their students to excell they need to allow them to do so. Not threaten to take classes away.
