5th Grade Band

Band is an opportunity that begins in grade 5 and continues through grade 12. The 5th grade band class utilizes woodwind, brass and percussion instruments to enhance students’ elementary music education and become a well rounded individual.

SAVE THE DATE: We are hosting an instrument rental night on Wednesday, September 19th at Fox River Middle School in the commons from 3:00-6:00. This is an opportunity for parents to meet and work with representatives from Breber Music to rent or purchase an instrument. It will save you travel time and your questions about renting or purchasing will be answered by the company representatives. You may choose to go to any area music store on your own. This is only offered as a convenience to families.
