Instrumental Music
Students may sign up for beginning band or orchestra lessons at the beginning of 4th or 5th grade. The lessons are free, but parents need to provide an instrument. In the first year of instruction, students meet for small group lessons for one 30-minute period per week. In their second year of instruction, students meet for small group lessons for one 30-minute period per week, and also meet for one full ensemble rehearsal for one 45-minute period per week.
