Fall Scheduling for 8th Grade
Dear Parents and Students,
We hope that all of you are doing well and being safe in these trying times. As we look forward to next year we are trying to put together our schedule for classes. We have attached a form to fill out for our schedule for next year, all students need to complete this form
bit.ly/Rising8thGrade
The rising 8th Grade Students at Durham are given a couple more options of classes that they can take for Connections. The Band students specifically are given the option to take 2 hours of Band meaning that both of their connections would be a Band class. The first would be Band as they have had it in the last 2 years at Durham.
The second would include the following:
1. Year Long Class
2. Manditory audition for Honor Band/All-State
3. Manditory solo and ensemble participation
4. Manditory audition to be in the Symphonic Band at Durham
5. This class will cover conducting, jazz improv, solo, small ensemble playing, among other concepts that we don't cover in regular band class.
If you are interested in being in this class please indicate that on the Microsoft form attached. Otherwise, please still complete the rest of the form.
Thank You,
Matt Segars
