How do I select an instrument?

Attend the Instrument Fair! The Instrument Fair allows students to look through, and try the band instruments. Attendance is necessary, please do not assume what instrument your child will play. Students must be placed on the instrument with the director's assistance to be enrolled in the correct class for sixth grade. Together we will work to place your child on an instrument that will be fun and the easiest for them.

This is a "come and go" type of event so come anytime during the hours listed on the flyer you received in the mail. The first hour may be crowded so it could be to your advantage to wait until later if possible. Students will travel to three or four instrument stations and wait in line for their turn to try that particular instrument. Each instrument table has a band director there to help you try it and decide which is best!!! Due to class size, some beginner classes may close the first night.

If you cannot make the instrument fair or have missed the instrument fair, DON'T WORRY! Give us a call after the fair and we can make an appointment to meet and make a decision on an instrument for your child. Currently we are making appointments for July and August.
