Important Message For Band Students
If your student plays a school-owned instrument (mainly french horn, baritone, and tuba), those instruments must be brought to school and turned in during Student Item Pick-Up next week for a full inventory count. If your student would like to check their instrument out over the summer to practice, that can be arranged after inventory is complete. Otherwise, students will be able to check their instrument out again at the start of next school year.
If your student plays a rented instrument from Meyer Music or an instrument that is personally owned, keep it over the summer for next school year.
8th grade students need to turn in folders with concert music.
