ββSummit Middle School has a large and active music program that includes two large Concert Bands (Beginners Band and Experienced Band).
Beginner Band
The Beginner Band is for students who want to learn a new instrument in a band atmosphere. We practice Mondays and Thursdays before school at 7:40am to 8:30am. We explore how to play their instrument of choice, discuss maintenance and care, and learn how to read introductory level music. The program is great for students to develop their musical skills and to contribute to a team of musicians who all share the love of music.
Experienced Band
The Experienced Band is for students with at least one or two years of playing experience on a band (or string) instrument. Rehearsals are on Tuesdays and Fridays before school at 7:40am to 8:30am. Regular and punctual attendance, as well as a commitment to the program for the year, is very important.
As with the Beginner Band, students receive a report card at the end of each term.
