SGI LESSON ATTENDANCE                                              25%

Students are required to attend Small Group Instruction (SGI) lessons.  They allow you to build foundations and learn technique based on your individual needs. SGI lessons rotate so that you are not missing the same classes.  Make-up lessons are included in the lesson schedule. It is your responsibility to make up any class work missed during your SGI. Lesson schedules are given out on a monthly basis and are posted on Google Classroom. If you are unable to attend your SGI lesson, please make sure to communicate with Ms. Silvera beforehand.
