High school

Monday- during school we have 45 minute class. And then at night from 6-9

Tuesday-No practice 'cause we're on block schedule, and 2nd is even block, Tuesday is odd

Wednesday-90 minute block period in the morning, and then 5-8 at night

Thursday-45 minute class during school, but usually our Wind Ensemble plays instead and underclassmen get study hall. I envy them

Friday- 50 minute class during school, no practice at night

Saturday- 9-4. Sometimes if we have competitions, it's different, and varies depending on where the competition is and stuff. Usually 3 hours or so, but mainly runthroughs with minimal playing.

Sunday-Day to catch up on hw. No practice.

We usually average 14 hours a week outside of school. It depends if there's a competition, but normally 14 hours a week pre-competition (starts in October for us), so the first month and a half is 14 hours a week. We have 1 week of band camp in August where we do 8-9 hours each day. Freshmen start the week before with 3 days of beginner band camp. heheh.

either two, or three times a week, because since we have band, we also get p.e. too for the whole semester. i get band on tuesdays, and thursdays, and sometimes on fridays too.

band camp is four days a week, and 5 hours long, and band camp is for two weeks. we have some stupid rule in washington (state) that we cant start band camp untill two weeks before school. scream during the school year, we have sectionals once a week and full band once a week. Those ere about two to three hours long.

good God... the entire band practiced every school morning except tuesdays for an hour, monday evenings 5:30-9, brass after school from 3:25-3:55 or w/e, the same for woodwinds on tuesday, and I think our flags practiced on tuesday evenings or something of the like... and that was only when our "section leaders" decided to have "optional" rehearsals

BTW, that didn't include class time. the (non-freshmen) kids all had 1st hour together until concert band, so for us it was actually *2* hours in the morning. egh
