"Use what talents you possess -- the woods would be very silent if no birds sang there except those that sang best." ~Henry Van Dyke
Make the most of every learning opportunity
Use kind words when speaking
Sing and play your best
Insist on being a "BIRD"
Cooperate for building a winning team
Be positive
Initiate an encouraging atmosphere
Respect the teacher, yourself, and other students
Do unto others as though you were the others

Contracts
Each student will complete a class contract for third quarter, indicating which assignments they will complete to earn their music grade. All assignments are to be turned in by the end of the quarter, March 30.
Changes to Band Practice Requirements!
The required practice minimum has been increased to 90 minutes per week. These minutes need to be completed in increments of at least 15 minutes or more. Students will receive credit for the actual minutes practiced, not to exceed 90 minutes per week. Minutes exceeding the requirement are for the student's personal talent development!Practice sheets that are turned in after the due date will not be accepted for credit. Thank you for encouraging your student to be punctual!I believe that the added weekly minutes to our practice will allow us to master music that we otherwise would not be able to perform and am excited to see what possibilities await us!
