6th Grade Beginning Band - Performance and Practice Assignment

6th Grade Students and Parents:

1. Quick reminder - Lavaca Band Night is THIS FRIDAY, OCTOBER 27, at the football stadium. Call time is 4:30 p.m., which means students need to be seated at the stadium at 4:30 p.m. We will perform during the pregame portion of the football game (around 6:45 or 7:00 p.m.). Students will be free to leave after they are done performing. This is a REQUIRED performance, as listed on the band calendar and noted in the band handbook. Students will need to wear the LMS band t-shirt, blue jeans, and tennis shoes.

2. Weekly Practice Log Assignment -

Beginning today (Monday, 10/23), students will be required to complete a practice log (which is located in the back of the band book) every week. Students will need to practice AT LEAST 15 minutes a day, 5 days a week. This does not mean 75 minutes in one sitting--students need to practice daily to get any benefit from practicing. Students will fill out the practice log daily; parents will sign the log at the end of the week. Logs will be graded every Monday.
