OBJECTIVES OF THE LA SALLE-PERU TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL BAND PROGRAM:
1. To help the student develop into the best musician he or she can be through emphasis on instrumental music education.
2. To offer an opportunity for the young musician to perform literature of an appropriate level of difficulty, both individually and as a part of a student ensemble.
3. To help the student learn good character traits: such as responsibility, self-discipline, respect, and service.
4. To help the student learn cooperation with others and to work as a "team player" to achieve group goals.
5. To support and enhance the music programs in the elementary and junior high schools of the LaSalle-Peru-Oglesby areas.
6. To provide musical services to the school and community.
7. To promote, build and educate current and future audiences and supporters of music.
PHILOSOPHY OF THE LA SALLE-PERU TOWNSHIP HIGH SCHOOL BAND PROGRAM
The purpose of music education is to provide students with the knowledge that allows them to make informed and effective choices about music and the arts. Through active performance, students gain a deeper, more meaningful understanding of these choices. The applied, musical, and cultural contexts of the performance music are essential to achieve total musicianship.
