The transition from fifth to sixth grade can be difficult. With the combining of three schools into one, there are bound to be doubts and concerns. Fortunately, staying involved in band will help make the transition easy and fun!
Music requires taking the product of today and improving upon it for tomorrow. This process continues indefinitely, and is the basis for all lessons and rehearsals. There is no such thing as being perfect overnight. However, striving for long-term excellence is a real and tangible goal. Each student is responsible for his/her success. Mrs. Way serves as the coach and cheerleader along the musical journey!
NEW: A combined 5th/6th grade concert has been added for May 2nd, 2016. This is a great opportunity for fifth grade students, who will attend Dundee Middle School the following year, to see how fun it is to participate and perform in the sixth grade band. The combined concert also allows the current sixth graders to think back to playing in fifth grade, and comparing all the success made in one year in middle school.
