School band play in COVID safe pods

Feb 27 2021 Share
The Wenatchee High School in Washington have implemented an innovative and, above all, safe method of keeping band practice ongoing.
 
Repurposing the pods to include space for the musicians’ equipment, the music and theatre departments took on the initiative so as to encourage playing in a group versus playing remotely.
 
The pods had reportedly been in use since January, even with a system of alternating school hours for other subjects in place. The sealed-off changing tents are now permitting the band to keep practicing as COVID-19 continues to spread. The show must indeed go on.
