[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So the issue here is that there are 60 students in a band class, with multiple grades? That's pretty standard. When I was in MS, we had two sections of band, brass and woodwind, and would combine as we got closer to concert time. It would be 80-100 kids. This isn't anything to complain about. [/quote] Was the room designed to fit that many students? Was everyone already experienced at playing their instrument? Times are very different than when you and I were in school. Especially since the pandemic, there are kids that didn't start an instrument in 4th grade that are now starting in 6th or 7th grade (as advertised in their curriculum guide on the school website) yet they are lumped into a giant class with experienced kids, one teacher, and a room that's too small.
