Each band will have varying requirements for scales and music pass-offs each nine weeks. Check back as they will be posted here as they become available.
                                                                               
Homeroom time. For students who cannot pass-off during homeroom time, we will work out another opportunity to do so. Essential Elements pass-offs can all be completed through Essential Elements Interactive.  Some pass-offs will also be available to complete through videos uploaded to Google Classroom.
                                            
More often than not, we will not cover the pass-off lines during class. This creates an opportunity for individual motivation and learning! Students will be expected to play correct notes, rhythms, articulations, and dynamics in the correct key and time signature without any prompting from the band directors. 

YES!!!  Pass-offs will account for 30% of the student’s grade each nine-weeks.  Progress will be tracked on the Pass-Off Chart.
