Concerts/Quizzes 40%
All students are required to attend all scheduled concerts and performances. Parents need to notify me at least a week in advance if a student will not be able to attend. Failure to obtain excused absence will result in a lowered grade. In emergency cases, parents can contact me as soon as possible to avoid a failing grade.
Quizzes will be announced at least a week in advance and will either be written or performance-based. If needed, students can schedule to make recordings at school either before or after school time. All students will be allowed to re-do or schedule an alternate time for in-class playing quizzes.
Assignments 30%
Assignments will consist mainly of work done during class. It may be either written or performance-based.
Rehearsal etiquette 30%
Students are expected to come prepared to participate in each class with ALL required materials and a good attitude. I will do regular binder, pencil, and fingernail checks. Students must actively listen and participate each day. Disrupting rehearsal, lessons, or others will result in a lower rehearsal etiquette grade.
