At this event you will:

• Select an instrument with the guidance of a music teacher

• Learn about instrument rental, and set up the rental with a music store, if you wish (rentals aren't charged until instrument delivery in August). 

• Register for Summer Music Lessons

• For 5th graders, this also officially registers you for band or orchestra for next year. (6th graders filled out a music choice form in February, so should already be registered)

Interested in learning more about getting an instrument now? 

We will have information at the Tryout Events...but if you are curious, check out this link to learn the best options.  BDUSD does have a limited number and type of instruments to loan out for families experiencing financial hardship; this can be discussed at the Instrument Tryout and Rental Event.

Is this event required?

We ask families to make every effort to attend if possible - in 20 or 30 minutes, we can help your child pick the best instrument for him/her, secure a place in that instrument section (some instrument sections are limited in size), and answer any questions you might have. If circumstances prevent you from attending, please contact us after the event and we will make sure your student is included.
