How can a student schedule BOTH Freshman Jazz Ensemble and Freshman Concert Band ?
A. Since New Trier has a nine-period day, it is easy to find time to schedule two music classes, especially if you take four “majors.” Students who take five “majors” may need to go to summer school or take an “Early Bird” class at some point while at New Trier. There are numerous students who have three and even four music classes during the day. With parent permission you can even schedule a class during your lunch period. In fact, many students eat lunch while in a Concert Wind Ensemble, Concert or Symphony Orchestra, or Concert Jazz Ensemble. These classes are specifically scheduled during lunch periods so students can participate in two music classes if they wish to.
