method books

While there may be a more appropriate place to ask this question, there is no place I have seen where I will get a better answer.

I have been asked to teach privately several Jr. High and High School trumpet players. The students are all from inner city schools with generally very low family incomes. I have agreed to take on these students on a temporary basis, and pass them on to some of the more well known trumpet teachers when they are “ready”.

What I need to know is what are the main books I need to have these kids working out of to succeed in the high school music world with aspirations to go further?? What do you expect your students to have on their stands at home and be working on for college auditions?

I want to empower these kids with the tools to achieve their goals, but need to know what to include in my list of “books to own”. I appreciate your taking the time to respond.
