I've been practicing more...............

correspondence?

Congrats on a successful school term!

1) It may be a tad of a faux pas to publicly post educators' names. Scribbling/blurring out is generally a good way to go, and always err on the side of privacy/caution.

2) Did you mean "coincidence?"

Thank you!
Correspondence because more music makes better grades?
Edit: correlation not correspondence

There is an expression, as well as a truism that is frequently over looked; "Correlation does not equal causation."

I wish I had Elvis as my PE instructor!!''

I disagree with this. Will explain why in a different thread under "General Chatter."

Hup

Blah, blah, blah...

The point is, as many in the music education industry proclaim, does practice or the participation in orchestra and band make Johnny a better student?

Discuss...

Doesn't imply that at all. The pressure for scholastic achievement, for many families these days, has become intense enough that other priorities are displaced. The hope here is naturally for a win/win scenario where it turns out that a balanced life actually helps, and particularly that the balance may include the arts. If it helps, we could probably churn out a bunch of rubbish about the right cerebral hemisphere and its role in the cognitive process, but that could go south pretty quick - what if it led to a lot of enthusiasm for improvisatory music, like that jazz stuff that has led so many promising musicians into the gutter?

Well, let's just form a consensus and end the discussion!!

PE is only for the credit.
Also, in JH, it goes from 7th-9th, not like other schools. Next year it's high school band with 3 tri's
