Challenge Art is a worthwhile activity and many students benefit from the experience, but the absolute best time to begin an instrument is during our summer morning classes. Missing this altogether would put the student at a definite disadvantage. Students may enroll in choir by simply calling the Guidance Department or the choir teacher at each school or by checking the appropriate spot on the Tecumseh or Sunnyside registration form. Students may also join 6th Grade Choir when school starts. Performing groups rehearse during the regular school day.
All athletic teams practice and compete outside of the school day.
Clubs meet after school. This holds true through high school as well. In general, at Tecumseh, students are allowed to be in two performing groups. We discourage students from being in both band and orchestra because of the amount of practice time involved with learning an instrument. Students in band or orchestra play 3 days per week.
