The PERFORMANCE at the end of each semester is required by the Georgia Standards of Excellence and is part of the summative category of grades. This performance, in addition to the final assessment, will be 40% of their final grade. Please see dates listed on the syllabus and make sure your child is present for these performances. If a student misses a concert (for any reason), they will have the opportunity to complete a performance make-up assignment. Do you understand that these are required performances? *
