Welcome to the elementary band and music page! The menu will assist you with everything you need to know regarding Band, when band tryouts take place, how to get an instrument, information about the instruments, private lessons, and many other things you can explore about music. Active calendars with events in Music and Band, as well as our 4-day specials rotation are at the bottom of this page for your reference.
Starting in Kindergarten, students will learn both new and familiar music concepts, such as keeping a steady beat, instruments and their families, playing instruments, singing together as a group, simple rhythms, and basic music theory. We enforce these basics while introducing more concepts during the following six years that they attend the elementary school. Starting in 4th grade, students have the option to continue their regular music class or learn music through Band by learning a wind instrument. In 5th grade, students may start to learn percussion after auditioning for the class. Any new band students can try out and audition for these instruments starting in the spring of their 3rd, 4th, and 5th grade years.
If you ever have any questions, comments, or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact us! Communication is important to your child's success, and we do our best to communicate with students, parents, and teachers.
