Marching Band Rehearsals - We have been given approval to start having Marching Band practices at school starting August 25th. For now, rehearsals will be Tuesdays and Thursdays from 3:00pm-4:45pm. More information will be coming soon.
Listening - There are 5 listening days a semester. Students will listen to a piece of music and will answer questions when the listening is done. These assignments are during class, and students should not have to take it home and work on it. If the student is absent they will have 1 week to make it up on their own. Theory - These assignments will be given about every other week for musicians starting on August 31st. Each unit contains 5 lessons and at the end every student will be given a test on all of the lessons learned in their theory. If the student passes their theory final they will progress to the next theory level. Assignments are given on Monday and are due on Friday. Playing Tests - All musicians will be given a sheet that will have to be completed by the end of the semester. Each student will have an individual private test with the director in his office. The grading system consists of the numbers 1-5 in which the student will need to get at least a 3. In order to advance onto the next playing packet you must pass all the playing tests on your paper.
