I can hardly believe that the school year is quickly coming to a close. We are only eight weeks away from summer (not that I’m counting or anything!) Those weeks are jammed packed with events though, some of which apply directly to your student.
- Practice Card is due on Monday, April 13th
- All classes — Complete chromatic scale;
- All classes Level Two Scales:F, Bb, Eb, Ab, Db, C, D, G; there are major test grades for every one of these scales. We only have three weeks left to finish the scale olympics, many students are very close. Please encourage your student to push through and finish!
- Imperium — All students should be able to perform the entire piece. (Tempo = 144)
- Comet Ride — All students should be able to perform the entire piece. (Tempo = 148 144)
- Stand By Me — All students should be able to perform the entire piece.
- We are “passing this music off” for a major grade on each piece. Failure to perform the music off may result in students not being allowed to travel with us the Sandy Lake.
- Tutorials are available every day for students who need additional assistance.
Please note the following below:
- The required after school rehearsals are coming up. They are Monday, April 20th and Thursday, April 23rd. Both will be from 3:35 – 5:00 PM and all students are required to attend both rehearsals. Students that do not attend both rehearsals may not be allowed to attend the Sandy Lake performance and may fail band for the six weeks. Please note that the rehearsal on the 23rd has been moved from its original date of the 24th.
