Music Lessons: How are lessons scheduled for band and orchestra?
Students who participate in band and orchestra participate in small-group lessons during the regular school day. Lessons are scheduled on a rotating basis to avoid conflicts with any one class. Students must report to their regular classroom teacher first, before going to a scheduled lesson. Students are also responsible for completing missed classroom assignments when they are pulled out for a music lesson. Band, orchestra and choir students meet regularly to practice and perform as a group. Students are given schedules, in advance, for both lessons and large-group sessions. It is recommended that students record the dates and times to avoid forgetting. Music students are required to keep their instruments in lockers in the music room.
