The new normal: school band kids practice in tents

EVERYONE must be afraid of COVID!



With schools around Washington starting to let students back on campus, one big question remained for the music programs: How are THEY going to practice?

A school in Wenatchee answered that by getting green pop-up tents for their students to practice in.

Wenatchee High School principal Eric Anderson explains how they got the idea, "There's obviously a concern about singing with a mask off, and we wanted to make sure that our students could sing and play an instrument in a group so they could practice together. It was extremely important for us to figure out a way to make that happen, so our creative approach is what we landed on".

While it's not the perfect solution, it's working for them. "They enjoy being back in school, they enjoy playing in together as a group, obviously they would love to be aback under circumstances, but knowing that we can't be in that space right now, they are taking advantage of what they have in front of them right now", Anderson says.
