Expectations:
The students will sit together quietly as a class to watch the entire performance. The purpose of this event is not only to give your students a chance to perform, but also for them to experience and listen to more advanced band music. It gives younger students a window into where their band journey is taking them in the coming years and helps them understand how to be good audience members to their school community.
This concert is the majority of their grade for the Trimester and is required to pass the class. If there is a family emergency, please contact me ASAP and they will be given an alternative assignment. If a student misses the concert without their parent/guardian contacting me about an emergency, they will likely fail the class for the Trimester.
If your family has an emergency that necessitates you leaving early, please let me know. Otherwise, I do expect all students to stay for the entire concert. It will end around 8:30 PM.
Mr. Ross, Band Director & Mr. Walz, Band Director
