Parents! Did you know that instruments should be brought home over the weekend? Many are left at school! Your encouragement here could be a great help! Practice, Practice, and more practice! Did you know that most of our students do not practice enough? Band students are asked to practice 2 ½ hours per week outside of school. It is expected that with this minimal effort, great individual improvement will take place. It is recommended that the 2 ½ hours happen over several days, maybe ½ hour per session. Instrument lessons are also a great idea. There are many places find a good teacher. One is the WRHS Music Dept. Artists in Residence Program Contact Melanie Donegan at melanie_donegan@wrsd.net
