ATTENDANCE          Broadway Music Class Voice is primarily a performance class.  The majority of your grade is based on weekly evaluations of your progress.  Students are expected to attend all class meetings.  If you must miss, please call my office prior to class time and leave me a detailed message regarding your absence.

 

 

EVALUATION           Grades are based on the following criteria.

 

                                    Weekly Evaluations                  60%

                                    Midterm Performance               10%

                                    Final Jury                                  30%

 

Each student will study 4-6 solo selections from contrasting musical styles.  Additionally, students will participate in at least one small ensemble.

 

CONDUCT                 Students are expected to conduct themselves on campus and in class so others are not distracted from the pursuit of learning.  Discourteous or unseemly conduct may result in a student being asked to leave the classroom.  Persistent misconduct on the part of a student is subject to disciplinary action as outlined in the Student Handbook.

 

                                    Students may be disciplined for conduct, which constitutes a hazard to the health, safety, or well being of members of the College community or which is deemed detrimental to the College’s interest.  These sanctions apply whether or not such conduct occurs on campus, off campus, at college sponsored or non-college-sponsored events.  Disciplinary action may also be taken regardless of the existence of any criminal proceedings that may be pending or in progress.

 

                                    Students attending class or related functions under the influence of alcohol and/or drugs will be asked to leave immediately.  These students may be referred to the Wellness Center for evaluation before being allowed to continue in the class.
