POLICY ON SCHOOL MUSIC PARTICIPATION
It is important to us that all students and their parents be familiar with the
school music policy of the Tacoma Youth Symphony Association (TYSA) and that
they understand and agree to support it. To
provide us with a record of your knowledge of this policy, we will ask that you
complete and sign the above form designating such. We appreciate your adherence to and support of this policy.
|
 |
An important aspect of membership in any TYSA orchestra or one of
its adjunct programs is simultaneous participation by the student musician
in their school’s instrumental music program. |
|
|
TYSA strongly supports music education in the schools. School
music programs offer the student musician opportunities for daily ensemble
participation which is then complemented by their involvement in the TYSA
orchestras. |
|
|
Participation in school music, in TYSA and in private lessons are
three elements of well-rounded music education |
