The 6th Grade Band meets twice during our 6 day rotation during the extension time periods (the middle of the school day). In order to be in the All-City Band your student must be enrolled in the school Band and attend regularly. Folders for the 6th Grade Band will be kept at school for easy access. Photocopies of music will be sent home with students for practice. Regular at home practice is an expectation of all members. Playing one of the following instruments is a prerequisite to join: flute, oboe, clarinet, alto saxophone, tenor saxophone, baritone saxophone, bass clarinet, bassoon, trumpet, french horn, trombone, baritone, tuba, percussion (kit players, please see Mr. BA about joining our jazz band - Mostly Brass). If your student is interested in joining, but does not yet play an instrument, please get in touch with Ms. Nelson for a list of private instruction resources. Each student will receive a grade on his/her report card at the end of each term based on rehearsal participation, practice records, and our two concerts.
