Rental Information
Renting an Instrument: Students signed up for violin and viola need to rent an instrument use for class and they will take it back and forth between home and school. Those learning the cello will use a school instrument in class and rent an instrument to keep at home. And bass players will get a school instrument to use in class and one for at-home practice. There are several rental companies available for string instruments. They are Coles, Music & Arts, Menchey Music.
Our district works with Coles - they come to the school for instrument repairs and exchanging instrument sizes. All these companies rent good quality instruments, and I recommend renting over buying. String instruments come in many different sizes, and your child will probably change sizes at least once or twice during their time at Pennsville Middle School. Both rental companies will trade sizes when needed at no additional cost. Please refer to the sizing chart on the next page to ensure a proper fit.
