[quote=Anonymous]Starting band in 6th is ridiculous. I went to a crap middle school in the middle of nowhere where half the girls did drugs or got pregnant in high school. They actually opened a nursery program on the high school to keep kids in school to graduate. And we started band in 6th. I would expect privates to offer SOME musical education beyond music general music class. Our current public in a good neighborhood and virtually no FARMS offers band in 4th, orchestra in 3rd. I don’t know about band, but I believe orchestra kids get private lessons once a week during the day, and group practice is once or twice a week before school. So it doesn’t cut too much into academic work and doesn’t interfere with other after school extracurriculars. [/quote]
