Band Classes

Mission Statement

Epiphany Catholic School, a Christ-centered environment, is dedicated to developing the whole child through academic excellence and nourishing servant leaders in the footsteps of Jesus.

About the Band Program ~

Students, grades 4-8, may participate in the band program at Epiphany Catholic School. All band classes are held during the school day; Ensemble students have additional after-school rehearsals. All students utilize Accent on Achievement Method book series. Intermediate to advanced band students receive sheet music for weekly Mass or school/community performances.

Students should come prepared to band class each week with method book/s, sheet music, instrument and accessories. Parents will need to provide an instrument for their child either by renting or owning one. Jewell Tone Music (Culpeper) is our vendor for instruments, books and accessories.
