Homeschool Band Class

Northern Lights

Homeschool Band classes can range anywhere from 20-40 students in a class. Classes are 1 hour 30 minutes long and the cost is $500 (August-December or January-May, a total of 14 weeks including Thanksgiving Break and Spring Break).

​

Students enrolled in these band classes will be offered the opportunity of being in a band with peers and a performing ensemble. Being in band offers many benefits including self expression, cognitive development, opportunities for socialization, self discipline, lower stress levels, and studies show that students of the arts continue to outperform their non-arts peers in academia. The list is endless!

​

  • Counting, reading, and playing rhythms

  • Reading notes of the staff

  • Ensemble playing

  • Independent playing

  • Instrument technique for instrument selected

  • Socialization

  • Performance opportunities

  • Having fun!

​

This is a performance based class with a scheduled performanced at the end of the session.
