How Parents Can Help

Regardless of musical background, a parent's support and encouragement will have a tremendous impact on a child's progress in band. To assist in the musical growth of your child, you can:

  • Support the goals, policies, and procedures of the director.  Your child succeeds when the band director succeeds.
  •  Require regular practice at home.  Provide a daily time and place where your child can practice without distractions or interruptions.
  • Ask your child to play for you and encourage performance.
  • Teach your child to be punctual by helping him or her to be on time to performances and rehearsals.
  • Enthusiastically attend all band functions to show your support.  Get involved!  Join the Holly Grove PTSA and/or Band Boosters
  • Help keep your child's instrument in good repair and procure the necessary materials in a timely manner.
  • Give strong consideration to providing private lessons for your child.
