Yes, in 9th grade we were required to take a music class. We didn't play instruments in the class. We just learned about music and its history, did some singing, learned about instruments. People who were more interested in music could join chorus or the various bands (Jazz band, Concert Band, Marching Band) for fun. There was also an AP Music Theory course offered, but only those who were truly interested in music took it (about ten students per year out of 170.)
