    Jill,

    In our state of Texas, a Fine Arts is required to graduate. Of course,
    if not in band, choir, orchestra, or theater, they are placed in the
    mickey mouse class - Art. At this time all students on the recommended
    plan have to take it, our district went one step farther and required it
    for all levels so, they do have to pass. The students that are not
    very self motivated, absent a lot, or just dont care- dont pass. I
    personally have two seniors at this time who will not graduated because
    of absences and thinking they could take it in summer school. We have
    five art teachers in the high school and all of us had at least 25%
    failure this last trimester (going off tri next year and onto semester
    yea) I do understand your frustration for I have been there.
