The latest test assignments will be announced via Schoology and/or email. Tests that involve individual performance during class can be retaken/made up with NO GRADE PENALTY. Please keep this in mind if you perform below your expectations! You can always perform the test again, as many times as you like up until the end of the grading period in which the test is administered.
For all assessments, students are scored against a pre-set standard of musical excellence. The three categories with rubrics are as follows…
FUNDAMENTALS: Rubric for fundamentals
TECHNICAL PREPARATION: Rubric for scoring technical accuracy
