Music
Lower Division music is literature driven and includes choral singing using solfege signage, music appreciation with historical reference, and creative movement by learning prescribed dance moves. Students learn how to read music and practice rhythmic intervals through instrumental instruction using Orff instruments. The selection of songs and rhymes used for sequential skill building offer a rich repertoire, building from simple to complex. Students have the opportunity for yearly program performance, which may be informal class demonstrations called “informances” or full-blown published musical productions, such as Tom Sawyer.
Middle Division Music classes include choir, strings, orchestra, and band and all students in 5th and 6th grade participate as part of their regular curriculum. In 7th and 8th grade, students may continue to participate in and study music as an elective.
Upper Division continues developing the musical skills of students with choir, concert band, and string ensemble, while also adding a music theory course.
