Lesson Groups: 8th Grade

Lessons for 6th Grade will be on Monday/Tuesday, Thursday, and Friday. Each lesson group will be assigned a day, and lessons will operate on a rotation so that students don't miss the same class each week. Students are required to pick up their lesson card the morning of their lesson. Lesson cards function as passes out of the regularly scheduled class. Have your classroom teacher initial your lesson card to give you permission to go to lessons.

Students may miss lessons only if there is a test during the class they would miss OR if they are failing that class.

Missed lessons must be made up within 2 weeks, during an activity period.

If you study privately and do not plan on attending school lessons, you must come see me to obtain a private lesson form. This form is to be filled out by your private teacher and submitted to me at the end of the year. Your private teacher will be asked to record the number of lessons you attended throughout the year as well as the repertoire, both solo and etude, that you worked on. Students who study privately are encouraged to participate in school lessons.

If anyone is interested in learning the bass, Mr. Herchenroder (the high school orchestra teacher) has generously offered to provide free lessons. You can choose to have lessons outside of school, or you may join another beginning bassist in the 6th grade lesson rotation. See me for details.
