The pull-out band program in Manteno has existed for at least 20 years. Students play their instruments in full band rehearsals. With so many students in each band, we can't spend the full rehearsals teaching just a few students.
Students learn how to play their instruments during the sectionals.
We teach instrument fundamentals, section techniques, articulation, fingerings, trill fingerings, and tone qualities. Our parents have invested hundreds of dollars in instruments for their children. They expect us to teach their children how to play their instruments. Band One pull-out sectional per week for 25 minutes. One pull out sectional per week for 45 minutes.
