Plano ISD Academy High School – Band IV Honors

Mar 2026 · 2nd Semester

Although encompassing the same group performance expectations as the on-level band courses listed above, this course has an added emphasis on proficiency of repertoire, advanced technical skills, advanced theory and aural skills, critical performance evaluation, and the development of a personal portfolio demonstrating the development of advanced comprehensive individual musicianship. Students in Band IV Honors will be required to complete a culminating project based on student interest and musical knowledge. This is a full-year course. Attendance at all outside of school rehearsals and performances is required. Class placement is determined by audition. Additional supply fees may be associated with this course; however, Plano ISD will take steps to ensure that costs will not prevent access to programs. (See Consumable Supply Fees.)
