Receiving a formal CCM Progress Report and speaking with your student’s instructor about their strengths, areas requiring improvement, and specific strategies for them, helps with achieving semester and long-term goals.
We ask that parents make themselves available to meet with their student’s CCM instructor, either before or after their lesson during the Progress Report Week. Parents will hear specific recommendations for what their student needs to focus on to make progress with their skill and musicianship development.
It’s also an opportunity to ask your instructor specific questions or mention concerns that you may have about your student’s music instruction. We want to ensure that every student reaches their potential while thoroughly enjoying learning and playing music.
