Parents of 5th and 6th grade students!
Starting Thursday of this week, I will be requiring beginning band students to find 30 minutes a week to practice their instrument. They will be given a packet that contains some info to aid them in practicing and a folder that will have music for them to practice! They will also need to bring their packet and folders with them to band class.
I understand that schedules can get in the way with finding time to practice, so don't stress if you can't get all 30 minutes done in one shot! Also, I'm very flexible and am willing to meet before and/or after school with your student. I also understand if that doesn't work either, if that is the case, email me at Tmiller@mcstryon.org and we can work out a time, or if you have any question email me.
Thank you!
