Participation in these groups is open to the entire school and is dependent on committed participation. Students enrolled in these before/after school programs will enhance their music skills and will even receive credit towards their regular enrolled class. (students can use rehearsal time on practice logs; for every hour of rehearsal you can claim 30 min. on your log) These ensembles start-up times and procedures will be advertised through the school Daily Bulletin and our website.
