1 2018/2019 Handbook 1
2 Welcome! You have chosen to be a member of one of the most successful programs at Cuyahoga Falls High School. Through the instrumental music program, you will be representing not only yourself, but the band program, our school and our community. Our goals for the year not only include achieving musical excellence, but striving consistently to do our personal best each day. Course Description and Objective During the course of the second, third, and fourth quarters all band students in the instrumental music program will participate in either the Freshmen Band, or one of the three auditioned bands, Gold, Black or Symphonic. Students will prepare a variety of musical selections for a number of performances, including our Holiday Concert, the All-City Band Concert and the Spring Concert and Awards program. In addition, students will participate in several adjudicated events that are sponsored by the Ohio Music Education Association. These opportunities will present us with feedback about our performance and present new challenges as we strive for excellence. General Objectives To develop musical experiences that enhances students overall educational experiences. To provide a suitable background in music instruction for those students who elect to continue the study of music after graduation. To develop a life-long appreciation for music and continuation of musical activities. To develop performing organizations that are a source of pride for the individual, the school, and the community. Grading 90% of the grade will be based on mastery of the topics covered in this course. The remaining 10% of the grade will be based on practice and work habits. What does this look like? o Instruction Practice Activity Review Assessment 10% 90% Class Participation Playing Quiz/Test Class Activity Performance Practice Chart o Students will be well informed as to how their grade for each assignment will be determined. o There are fewer assignments making up the greatest portion of the final grade. Students will need to take these assessments very seriously and adequately prepare for them. What if a student doesn t do well on an assignment? o All students will be offered a second chance assessment. This means that after completing an assignment measuring mastery, they will have a chance to redo the work for a higher grade. o The assignment must be redone no later than one week after the initial assessment. There will be no zeros given for any assignment counted towards the mastery of the content. Students MUST complete the work in order to earn credit for the course. 2
3 Band is a performance based course, which means attending and participating fully at performances will constitute a large part of each student s summative grade. In order to earn all points for a performance, students must do the following: o Arrive on time o Have all necessary materials/equipment o Comply with all elements of the dress code and be well-groomed o Behave appropriately during their performance and the performance of other groups Honors Band Students participating in the Honors Band Program are required to complete additional work outside of the regular band class in order to earn the honors GPA. To remain in the program, each student must complete the Honors Credit Point Sheet at the beginning of the quarter. This determines the student s plan for earning the honors GPA. Students who complete the requirements by the end of quarter deadline will receive an enriched grade. For more information regarding program specifics please visit our website, Expectations for Rehearsal The proper attitude during rehearsal affects the value of that rehearsal! Be present and on time. You cannot reap the benefits of a rehearsal or rehearsal segment you miss. Don t make plans that involve leaving rehearsal early or arriving late. Arrive early enough to be in place, with all necessary equipment and materials, BEFORE rehearsal starting time. Be actively and intently involved in the rehearsal. Just going through the motions during rehearsal is as bad as not being there. Always be thinking about your performance. There is to be no unnecessary talking. Your only focus should be the ensemble objectives. An instruction that has to be given twice robs the band of rehearsal time and focus. Don t cheat us all because you are not paying attention. Be cooperative. Even if you don t understand the motivation for a rehearsal activity, have confidence that your director does and execute as you are asked. Disrespect towards directors, teachers, and students will never make the band more successful. All students are expected to show the proper respect for their peers and teachers, and avoid exhibiting disrespectful attitudes such as eye-rolling, pouting, talking back, being unsupportive of directors and teachers or in any way questioning any instruction or direction given. Being negative in rehearsal is a sure way to lessen the effectiveness of that rehearsal. If you say things like this will never work there will probably be people around you that either believe what you say or are at least influenced by your opinion, and in either case they (like you) will be less productive. If you are keeping someone else from achieving their objectives, the entire organization is losing ground. Never be an obstacle to the success of others. Members are expected to give their utmost efforts during rehearsals in the pursuit of excellence in performance. Any less is an insult to your peers, your directors, and yourself. Offer encouragement to your peers, instead of criticism. It takes a lot of pats on the back to erase the sting of a kick in the pants. 3
4 You can t be effective in rehearsal if you are unprepared. Know all music/work that is due to be worked on in rehearsal. It is your responsibility to catch up should you miss a rehearsal. Have your materials organized - music, pencil, mutes, reeds - in order and readily available. Be certain your equipment is always in good working order. The CFHS Concert Bands can only reach the highest level of success when each individual, each section, and each element are at their highest possible effectiveness. It is the responsibility of each individual to do everything possible to reach that level and to do nothing that would keep themselves or others from reaching their goals. Instrument Care All instruments must be clearly labeled with the student s name. School-owned instruments become the responsibility of the student to whom they are issued. Any damage other than normal wear and tear will be repaired at the student s expense. Privately owned instruments must always be maintained in top playing condition. Always show the director your instrument before taking it for repairs. Remember that horseplay can cause damage to instruments and equipment. Be careful with your own instrument, place it out of harm s way if it is necessary for you to put it down, and never play around with or play on anyone else s instrument. All instruments and music are to be stored properly in the designated area. This includes storing the instrument in its case and locking the latches to prevent the instrument from falling out. This also includes covering the percussion instruments and putting all mallets and accessories into the proper place at the conclusion of rehearsal. The care of the percussion equipment is the responsibility of the entire percussion section. All instruments are to be covered at the end of rehearsal and mallets and auxiliary percussion items are to be put away in the cabinet. Only percussionists are permitted in the percussion area. Students that own their instrument should be sure to have a copy of the instrument information at home. This includes the brand of the instrument, description of the case and serial number on the instrument. Uniforms All students are required to wear their band uniforms for each performance. This includes a white shirt with no writing on it and black shorts. Additionally, boys must wear black socks and the band shoe or black dress shoes and girls must wear black flat dress shoes. Failure to wear the proper attire may result in the student being asked not to perform with the group and losing credit for the performance. Music is a defining element of character. ~ Plato 4
5 Private Lessons Private lessons are key in developing a superior musical organization. Students who study their instruments privately with a professional show rapid improvement in individual musicianship. As these students improve, their excitement towards practicing increases, they continue to improve, and they become a stronger contributor to the overall success of the band. Private instruction has a great impact on the individual student and on our band program both this year and in the future. The key to satisfactory results from private instruction is to start as soon as possible... SO START NOW. Please see below for a list of recommended private instructors. Flute & Piccolo Clarinet & Oboe Rae Yeager (330) Craig Wohlschlager (216) Tara Lang (330) Jenny Robinson (205) Bassoon Renee Anthony Dee (330) Trumpet Saxophone Evan Foltz (419) James Lang (330) Jerry Kleman (330) Theresa May (216) Percussion Rob Hassing (216) French Horn Kevin Walters (330) Craig Wohlschlager (216) Trombone, Euphonium, Tuba Jason Hadgis (330) Justin White (330) IMP and Fundraising Fundraising is a fact of life in our musical organization. All students and their families are strongly encouraged to participate in the fundraising activities. The monies raised from these events goes directly to funds for uniforms, instrument repair, the purchase of new music and instruments, and entry fees for participation in Ohio Music Education Association events. Additionally, the IMP provides a monthly newsletter with information for all band students throughout the district, including details about upcoming performances and The Instrumental Music Patrons (IMP) are the parent support group responsible for these activities. Parents are encouraged to attend the IMP meetings the third Tuesday of every month in the high school band room at 7:00 p.m. All parents of our band programs are invited to attend.
