📯 School-Owned Instruments:
All school-owned instruments must be returned for the summer. MSS will return their instrumens at the All-Town Concert. All other school will return their instruments at their last lesson.
🎵 Looking Ahead: Instruments & VCMS Band
If your child is renting an instrument from a music store:
Students continuing band at VCMS should continue renting over the summer so they do not lose rental credit.
Students not continuing in band may return the instrument to the store after their last lesson (see above for dates).
If your child is using a school-owned instrument:
The instrument should be returned at their last lesson. MSS should return at the All-Town Concert
Students continuing at VCMS will have their instrument transferred automatically and it will be waiting for them in the VCMS band room in the fall.
🎶 VCMS Band Enrollment
All current band students are automatically enrolled in VCMS Band for next year.
Later this year, families will receive information from Mrs. Camerato, the VCMS Band Director, including instructions for withdrawing if your child chooses not to participate.

Please feel free to reach out with any questions about concerts, rehearsals, instruments, or next year’s band enrollment.
