Please try to secure the instrument highlighted below, as well as the additional supplies listed to ensure a successful start for your child. Lessons will begin the week of September 22nd. A lesson schedule is attached indicating the start time of your child’s lesson. Lesson schedules will also be posted in your child’s classroom, in the 4th/5th grade hallway, and outside the instrumental music room. If you have difficulty obtaining the instrument by this date, please have your child attend the lesson anyway so he/she does not fall behind!
