All students will receive a small group lesson once per week for 30 minutes during the school day. Lesson schedules are worked out with the classroom teacher to suit the needs of each student. Most lessons are on a rotating schedule so that a student will not miss the same class each week. There is no cost for lessons during the school year.
Rehearsals
Rehearsals begin the first Tuesday in October and continue every Tuesday that school is in session until the end of April. Rehearsals meets in the gymnasium from 8-9:10 a.m. and transportation is not provided by the school district.
Lessons
Each student will have a practice chart each week to record home practice time. The practice chart also will help each child remember the steps for successful practice and what the assignment is each week. Consistent practice is the key to improvement! Practicing for 20-30 minutes or 5-6 days per week will help your child excel in Band.
Supplies
Supplies such as lesson books, reeds, valve oil and grease are occasionally needed during the school year. Mrs. Hoff has all of these supplies available for purchase in the band room.
