*As a performing ensemble class it is impossible to recreate the full "ensemble" growth and development that happens during the class period on an individual basis.  Students are part of a section that sings as a whole and must work together on daily tuning, blending, and other musical objectives within the rehearsal time.  However, we do understand student illness, class trips, and other situations that cause students to miss school.  For that reason, there will be a an opportunity to EARN BACK PARTICIPATION POINTS per marking period.  Students should report to Ms. Wade NO LATER THAN MONDAY of the week of the end of each marking period to be eligible to earn back points.  An assignment will be given and earn back points will be given upon completion of task.
