May 27, 200917 yr You're the valedictorian and its tradition that the valedictorian gives a speech at the high school graduation. Its a big deal. You're also a baseball/softball player whose team is playing in the region tournament on the night at the same time. You can't do both. Now what?
May 27, 200917 yr Video tape the speech and play it on the projection screen. Go with your team to regionals.

May 27, 200917 yr What a fight this would cause. Dad and son or daughter says game, mom says graduation.
May 27, 200917 yr Let the kid choose. If he/she is valedictorian, he/she should be capable of deciding for his/her self.
May 27, 200917 yr The kid definitely should be able to choose. For me it's a no brainer...play in the game.
May 27, 200917 yr Let the kid choose. If he/she is valedictorian, he/she should be capable of deciding for his/her self. :thumb: Absolutely. For me, I would choose to play. But I would NEVER hold it against a kid for deciding what was most important to them at that time. Either is a big deal. Sounds like a quality kid IMHO.
May 27, 200917 yr I think the video idea is awesome. With technology today, it would almost appear to be live.

May 27, 200917 yr As someone who gave a speech at their high school graduation and knowing how proud a moment that was for me that's likely what I would choose. Edited May 27, 200917 yr by All Tell Spelling error
May 27, 200917 yr As someone who gave a speach at their high school graduation and knowing how proud a moment that was for me that's likely what I would choose. I agree with that. I did the opening prayer at my graduation, and that was a wonderful honor I will cherish. However, given the choice, I would have chosen to play.
May 27, 200917 yr Obviously I didn't have to prove my ability to spell SPEECH in order to give one.:lol: Is there an embarrassed smiley available?
