One curricular change this year will be scale testing. Scales tests will not
affect seating for Symphonic Band, (or any other ensemble) and can be retaken
as many times as needed. Each student will be responsible to play 6 different
scales per semester. Scale tests can be performed before or after school, or
during certain class periods. Once a test is passed, the student will not be
asked to perform that scale for a grade ever again; at least not while here
at Lakes!
Second Semester scales are due May 31.
