HMS Bands

November

Welcome!

It is my pleasure to teach the Sparta Fourth and Fifth Grade Bands.

Our HMS Musicians not only learn how to play with good sounds, to read music, and to perform, but we contribute our creativity, dedication, and JOY to the HMS Community.

Enjoy the Music around you!

Ms. Curtis

Dear Parents & Guardians,

I hope all is well with you and your family. It is great to play with my fifth graders during our weekly lessons, and I look forward to meeting our newest band members in fourth grade soon!

Our long-distance learning for band takes place through Google Classroom. There are specific Google Classrooms for each instrument and grade. (ie Gr 4 Flutes, Gr 5 Trombones). The codes to join the correct Google Classroom is posted on this site, and have been emailed to parents as well.

I am excited to announce that we have the pleasure of working with another student teacher this fall. Miss Nicole Murr is a senior at Rutgers University, and is excited to meet and work with the HMS bands!
