Dear Elementary School Families,
Welcome to our Beginning Instrumental Music Program site! We know that for some of you, this will be your first exposure to music education and we wanted to take a brief minute to share some information with you.
Included on this site is information regarding our program and the different opportunities it provides for your child. This is a time where the both of you can explore the different options and get help choosing an instrument. If after looking over the materials you still have questions, please feel free to contact one of the instrumental music teachers at any time using the info listed below.
Music education is more than just playing an instrument. It is immersing your child in a culture of successful students and teachers who care about education. It challenges each child to use the creative side of their brain while, at the same time, learning a new language…MUSIC.
The goal of the Lexington Elementary Instrumental Music Program is to develop fundamental skills and interest in music, enhance group learning, and develop relationships in the music community. We look forward to meeting your child and having them join our music program!
Sincerely,
Lexington Elementary Instrumental Music Team
