Island Lake Band
Band Schedule
Small-group lessons are scheduled during the day on Mondays and Tuesdays. Each student receives one 30-minute lesson each week. Lessons will begin the week of September 18.
Large-group rehearsals are on Tuesday mornings before school from 8:05 to 9:05 in the band room. Students are expected to attend all morning rehearsals beginning the week of September 25. We rely on families to provide transportation. Assistance will be provided as needed.
It is district policy that band instruments that will be allowed on the bus are those that can be safely carried in a bag and/or are small enough to be held on the student’s lap. Instruments may not block the aisle; nor interfere with the space or take the place of another student. While a flute or clarinet is small enough to fit these guidelines, a French horn, baritone or tuba will not. Parents are encouraged to transport larger items in their own vehicles. If the above guidelines, for transporting musical instruments, creates a hardship for your family please contact the Transportation Office at 651-621-6027.
