How To Join Beginning Band

JOINING BAND FOR THE FIRST TIME...  

For the 2025-2026 school year...

In September Mrs. Fitzpatrick, the District Band Director, will visit 4th and 5th grade elementary classes in the district giving students the opportunity to learn more information about being in band.

Next, the parent and child interested in Band should attend the Band Parent Information Night in September. This night gives the parents the opportunity to hear the information about band and to ask questions.

Finally, the last step is to complete the online registration forms to officially sign up for Beginning Band. There will be a date in October to pay any fees and pick up supplies.  Lessons will begin about the second week in October and continue throughout the school year.

If you have questions, please contact Mrs. Fitzpatrick by email at fitzpatrickj@district148.net or by text or phone to 708-878-2847.
