WHAT DO I PLAY?
WHAT DO I PLAY?
The picture on the right shows all of the students that auditioned for instruments at the end of last year. If your name is NOT on that list, that means that you haven't picked an instrument with us yet. That is a requirement.
If you are new to McDonald or need to pick an instrument, please contact Mr. Major at jmajor@mesquiteisd.org or call him at 972-882-5718.
Please understand, that if you are not already on the list, that your instrument choices are limited by your schedule and band instrumentation.
