Student Playing Assessments (playing tests) for all students grades 6, 7 & 8 will take place during regularly assigned CYCLE 9 lessons (November 4 - 14).  Students should be practicing everyday to prepare for this assessment.  The test will include material we have been working on since the start of the school year.  A study guide can be downloaded on the left or in the grade specific band links.

A Note About Pullout Lessons...From the results of numerous studies, we can conclude that music students do not suffer negative academic effects when compared to students of similar academic capability who remained in the classroom. We can also conclude that overall Proficiency Test performance of students who participate in pull-out lessons is better than the performance of the students of similar ability who do not participate in the pull-out music program.  To read more about these studies, please visit our Music Advocacy link.
