Practicing
Students are expected to practice outside of class and properly prepare all music they are given. That's how we get better. You are expected to practice a minimum of 2 hours a week. Practice records are part of your grade and are to be turned in every Monday signed by a parent.
Practice records available on PDF files. Click on the practice record needed and then print.

Concerts and Concert Dress
Student attendance is mandatory to all performances. This is what
we work so hard for. Concert dress is as follows: Ladies;
long (floor length) solid black skirt, solid white blouse (not sleeveless),
black nylons and black dress shoes. Men; black dress pants
(not jeans or cordouroys), white dress shirt, long tie, black dress
shoes, black socks.
Grading
A or F? Your grade is based on all of the above items, as well as skills tests, performance tests, and music theory. As long as you are doing what you're supposed to, when you're supposed to and trying your best at all times, you'll be successful. You lose points anytime you're not following the rules or are being disruptive to the rest of the class.
Extra
credit is available by attending concerts, taking private lessons,
and other negotiable items.
