3 5 th Grade Band Class Days and Times Students who choose to participate in the Band Program will meet during the school day at Lakewood from 11:15 11:45 a.m. Students meet twice a week in small classes based on the instrument they play. Woodwinds: Students that play flute or clarinet meet on Mondays and Thursdays. Brass: Students that play trumpet, trombone, or baritone meet on Wednesdays and Fridays. There will be times when the entire band meets at once during the school day at Lakewood. You will be notified of these dates later in the school year. Concerts/Events We will have concert performances on the following dates: DATE TIME LOCATION PERFORMANCE Thursday, November 19, :00 PM Lakewood Middle School Gym Band Concert Wednesday, March 23, :00 PM Blue Valley West High School Gym West Area Band Festival Tuesday, May 3 rd, :30 PM Lakewood Elementary/Middle LKE Band and Strings Concert TBA Morning Lakewood Elementary School Assembly Concert Students are to wear all black for concerts. No ties please. Students are also to follow school dress code for concerts. What instruments are available in band? The following instruments are available for 5 th grade band: - Flute - Clarinet - Trombone - Trumpet - Baritone While several other instruments are used in middle and high school level ensembles, students begin on one of these instruments for fifth grade. Students will be given options for switching to different instruments in the future. If a student has already been taking private lessons for an extended time, please contact me. It is very important to understand that a successful band is a balanced band - one in which correct proportions of each instrument are present. In other words, a band made up of only flutes, and clarinets will not be very successful or enjoyable for the listener! When there are too many on one particular instrument, the balance of the band suffers and the drop-out rate increases as the students reach the upper grades. Therefore, we attempt to not only put your child on the best instrument for them, but one they can be successful at and that will be a large part of the program.
4 What are my child s responsibilities in band? Music (band, choir, and orchestra) is a curricular activity in the Blue Valley School District. Because of this, your child will be given a report card to show their progress in band. The purpose of the 5 th grade beginning band is to prepare students for middle school band by learning fundamentals of playing a band instrument, building proper practice habits, and knowing how to function as a member of a musical group. Their primary responsibilities include attendance to all rehearsals and performances, bringing all materials to class, and practicing outside of class time. What are my responsibilities as a parent? When your child chooses to begin band instruction, he or she chooses to make band a part of the school curriculum. Because success in instrumental music is so directly tied to class attendance and preparation, it is important that students and parents realize from the beginning that the choice to participate in band is a commitment. You, as a parent, should also feel some responsibility for their student s choice to enroll in instrumental music. Without support and encouragement from you, students can easily fail. As a parent, you are a vital part of the success equation - your attitude toward your child s participation may someday decide his or her success or failure. This statement is not only true for participation in band, but for countless other activities. Thank you in advance for your support and encouragement at home. Where can my child get an instrument? Blue Valley Public Schools is very fortunate to have such high quality music dealers provided for you in the Blue Valley School District. These stores adhere to our district wide policy of providing instruments approved by the Blue Valley School District. It is recommended that you make your purchase through one of these stores, because they are well aware of our requirements for students and should treat you fairly. Each store has a variety of purchase, rental, and rent-to-own programs. PLEASE NOTE: All instruments available through the Blue Valley vendors have been approved by the Blue Valley School District. Sometimes families have access to an instrument that has been previously used, and may not be on this Approved List. If you would like your students to use an instrument other than one on this list, please contact me before finalizing any plans. When purchasing a new or used instrument elsewhere (i.e. ebay or similar venue), you are strongly encouraged and cautioned to choose one from the approved school instrument rental list used by any Blue Valley Instrument Dealer. Due to the extreme poor quality of the instrument - YOU SHOULD NOT PURCHASE AN INSTRUMENT FROM A WAREHOUSE CLUB/STORE. Please contact me for further details regarding this list or any questions you may have about the quality of the instrument in question.
5 August 2015 Dear Band Parents: Congratulations on supporting your child s interest in learning to play a band instrument. Joining the beginning band classes in your child s school is the first step in what we hope will be a long and rewarding experience with music. Recent and continuous research has shown that the benefits to students who participate in music programs are numerous and expansive. In order to do all we can to optimize your child s potential for success, the Blue Valley music staff has developed instrument specifications. The purpose of the specifications is to insure that the instrument you rent or purchase for your student will be of an acceptable quality. All the music merchants in Johnson County have been provided a copy of these specifications. Because the Blue Valley specifications differ in some ways from how instruments normally are shipped from the factory, these music merchants have taken the necessary adjustments and incurred the additional expense to meet our specifications. A copy of those specifications is attached. The music staff equates learning to play on a poor quality instrument that doesn t work well to trying to learn to ride a bicycle when the chain keeps coming off or has flat tires. Learning the mechanics of playing an instrument, developing the necessary eye-hand coordination, tonal concepts, learning a new symbol system, etc., is difficult enough without adding to the challenge unnecessarily. The Blue Valley band teachers have discovered that instruments purchased in a box from a discount store, warehouse or on the Internet, may be cheaper than instruments rented or purchased from a reputable music merchant. However, these instruments are not of acceptable quality and put your son or daughter s potential for success at risk. Again, congratulations on your decision to expand your child s educational experience in Blue Valley to include band. The Blue Valley music staff shares your desire to provide the finest educational experience for your child. Sincerely yours, Janelle Brower Performing Arts Coordinator Blue Valley School District Education Services Metcalf Ave., P.O. Box Overland Park, Kansas (913) Fax: (913)
