PRACTICE, PRACTICE, PRACTICE!
Students are required to practice a minimum of 120 minutes per week. Practicing is a necessary part in the development of our band. All students are expected to practice current class assignments throughout the week until they are proficient. Students are free to arrange their practice schedules as needed for the week but must get a minimum of 120 minutes per week. Keep in mind the frequency in practice is more important than the amount of time practiced.
Students will be given frequent assessments to check their proficiency and progress. These assessments will be taken for a grade. Students may be asked to write a reflection, evaluation, or perform a song or technique in order to verify the quality of practice time.
