Anthony Middle School offers beginning band for all students interested in learning to play an instrument as well as concert bands by grade level. Students also may choose to participate in small ensembles and jazz bands that meet before school. Students are graded on daily participation, home practice (practice journals) and summative and formative performance and written assessments through the year. We use the Standard of Excellence method book. Minneapolis Public Schools is proud to provide instruments for all students interested in participating in instrumental music performance. Students are encouraged to use the resources provided on this webpage during home practice.
