All 6th Grade students will need the Measures of Success method book for their instrument. We will use this book everyday in class. The method book can be purchased on Amazon or the Music & Arts website. 

Clarinets and saxophones must have a supply of good quality reeds. Students will need two reeds in good condition in their instrument case at all times. The recommended brands for reeds is Vandoren or Rico. The strength should be 2.0 or 2.5 for beginners. 

Use the link below to find the book on Amazon, along with other supplies (reeds, valve oil, cleaning kits etc.). 

While we have a limited number of school instruments for student use, renting an instrument is one of the best options for beginning band students. For instrument rentals, we work with Music and Arts based in Wilmington. Music and Arts offers a rent-to-own program, so each payment made goes towards the purchase of your student's instrument. Instruments are delivered directly to school and repairs covered under their liability waiver are picked up and returned to school as well. Music and Arts rentals can also be stopped at any time without penalty, just end the contract and return the instrument.
