I don't know how large the OP's chapter is, but I know for mine, when I was active, we always had new member classes of less than 10, and the New Member Educator would try to find a night of the week when all of the new members were able to make their ceremonies/weekly meetings.

However, an excuse for not being able to attend always had to be a legitimate one (like the ones that others have mentioned here).
