Point deductions will be made according to tardiness at 100 points for each 5 minute interval. Students who fail to attend and perform at a required performance will not receive 1000 points. Required performances are: <b>Middle School Bands</b> Winter Concert Spring Concert <b>High School Band</b> Football games in which we participate Winter Concert Spring Concert Other performance opportunities such as contests, solo-ensembles, honor bands, basketball games, etc. will count as extra credit. <b>6th and 7th Grade Band:</b> THE BIGGEST PART OF YOUR GRADE IS YOUR PRACTICE CARD You will be expected to practice 140 minutes a week. The recommended method of getting this time in is 20 minutes a day, 7 days a week. Practice cards are due on Monday. You will receive 1 point for every minute practiced up to 180. A parent must sign your practice card each week. Practice cards for each week will be accepted up to Wednesday with the understanding that points can be deducted for being late. Students that are absent on Monday will not lose points for turning their card in upon their return. There will also be periodic assignments from the book and written tests, each worth 100 points each. Testing dates will be given in advance. <b>8th Grade Band:</b> All 8th grade members are graded by: 1. daily grade (10 points/day) 2. performance grade (1000 points per concert) 3. class grade (100 points per assignment) Class grades are assignments both written and performed on the intrument. Generally these assignments will be at least once a week. Scale is that of the Varsity Band's playoff scale. <b>High School Band:</b> During marching season and contest season, 100 points per day are possible for attending 7:15 a.m. rehearsals. Points are deducted for number of minutes tardy. Once a student is 20 minutes late, this will result in 0 points awarded for that day. A student is considered "on time" when they are seated, with instrument, ready to perform at 7:15 a.m. <b><u>PLAYING/WRITTEN EVALUATIONS</u></b> <b>High School Band:</b> Students will have to perform from memory the marching show music for one of the band directors by the following deadline: Romeo and Juliet Part I - August 31st Romeo and Juliet Part III - September 14th Romeo and Juliet Part II - September 28th Students can make an appointment at their convenience any time before or after school before the dealine date.
