Home of the Lisbon Lions Orchestra!
"A Commitment to Excellence"
Welcome back to our returning strings students and welcome to our new Lions Orchestra members!
Practice Expectations:
Every student is graded on the expectation of practicing 100 minutes per week. This averages out to 20 minutes per day / five days per week. Students will have practice assignments from the methods books and additional concert sheet music. Assignments will be marked in the method books by "slashes" through the exercise number. When an assignment is completed, an "X" will be drawn through the number. Practice grades for the HCPSS report card will be determined by student performance in class on assigned material.
Strings Schedule
Every strings student will receive one hour of instruction per week. The lessons are divided into two 1/2-hour lesson blocks. All strings students will be required to miss one recess per week for a lesson. For the second lesson, students will be pulled from the content block of classroom instruction or from a portion of related arts. Students are NOT pulled from reading or math instruction. Each student is responsible for making-up any missed work.
Strings Handbook
Each participating strings student is provided a copy of the new strings handbook. The handbook provides detailed information on the policies and procedures for the Lisbon Strings Program. Each student is asked to return the last three pages signed by both the student and a parent. Click on the link above to review and print the handbook.
