Week of September 4
Welcome Back!
HS students - you need your instruments all this week.
7th & 8th grade students - you do not need instruments until Friday.
-8th grade - We will work on the National Anthem and Fight Song (Victors)
-7th grade - We will play through your Standards of Excellence Book 1, you will
need book 2 starting next week. It is about $7 from any music shop.
6th grade students - you will not need instruments until Monday, September 19th. On Thursday, September 15th, we will have a beginning band meeting at 6:30pm in the Middle School Cafeteria. Meyer Music will be on hand to rent/sell instruments. They will also have techs available to check out family instruments. Please come and get band information!
All band students students will need to have instruments by September 19th or we may have to find them a different class for the year. We want them to be involved, but they must have an instrument to participate in band class. We have a few school-owned instruments, but they are not in the best shape. Students are most successful when their instrument is in good working condition.
Places to get instruments:
Meyer Music - Kalamazoo Store
Quinlan & Fabish - Stevensville Store
Bagatini's Music - St. Joseph Store
Second Song - Goshen, IN Store
Please do not get odd-colored instruments (red, purple, clear, etc.). They are usually poorly made and will break easily. The last thing we want is your student to be bored in band because their instrument is always broken. Instruments do cost money for quality.
