Concert Band Playing Grades & Sectionals

Playing grades are recieved by each student accomplishing* the exercises and songs assigned for each month. Each student can check off each song in the Playing Grades Binder (kept in the band room) as they accomplish* it throughout the month. Each student has his/her own check-off sheet in the Playing Grades Binder to keep track of thier progress.

*Accomplishing a piece means the student can play the song 1) with correct notes, 2) with correct rhythms, & 3) at a steady tempo! Tap the beat with your foot while you play!

Sectionals begin this coming week! Students need to have their sectional time marked in their planner so they remember to come to the band room at that time! This time is important for each individual band member. Please be on time and ready to play!! Thank you!!
