WJMS JAZZ BAND

 

          The WJMS Jazz Band program is open to all current band students in grades 7 and 8. Rehearsals will run from 7:00 a.m. to 7:45 a.m., every Wednesday that school is in session.  Participating students MUST SIGN IN AT THE ATTENDANCE OFFICE before coming down to the band room for each rehearsal.

The Jazz Band program is open to all students who play the following instruments: Alto Sax, Tenor Sax, Bari Sax, Trumpet, Trombone, Baritone, Drum Set, Piano, Electric Bass, String Bass, and Electric Guitar. Students must be in the Concert Band program in order to participate in the Jazz Band.

The survival of this performance-based group is dependent solely on the attendance of its members. Attendance will be taken at each rehearsal. However, this class will NOT be a part of their Concert Band grade on their report card. Students who have missed 3 Jazz Band rehearsals will NOT be allowed to participate on the performance. However, they may rejoin the group once the performance is complete. Please find the link to view the rehearsal schedule for this group.

 

I am looking forward to working with your student, and look forward to beginning our Wednesdays with the early morning sounds of JAZZ!
