Sorry, but they(fiddlers,etc.) should bite the bullet. Given the choice of taking anything other than a music course in high school, I'd still do marching band even though I personally didn't enjoy my high school experience. They are just some things, especially in high school, that you have no choice to decide! Take for instance, most foreign language requirements in high school. Years back, no one was taking these classes so Boards of Education everywhere decided to make it a requirement. Is that fair, NO! But what do you do? You bite the bullet and take the damn class! You can't complain and say you don't need the class. Tough luck! I say, let the fiddlers take academic classes over marching band. The majority, NOT ALL, think they're too good to associate with non-fiddlers anyway!:)
