Current 5th grade students will be able to make an appointment to try 3 different instruments and make their decision about what they would like to learn in middle school.

If your child is interested in joining one of the "Best Communities in Music Education," your child has the option of joining band or orchestra as they enter 6th grade. We will be hosting Instrument Selection Nights at each of the different middle schools, and Schmucker's nights are Tuesday, March 3rd and Wednesday, March 4th. Each student has the option to join band or orchestra, but they need to find out what instrument works for them. At these nights, during your selected appointment time, your student will be able to try a variety of instruments to see what they would like to learn. Professionals will be there to help guide them through the process. Rental information, scheduling information, and more will be available during those nights. Reservations for Instrument Selection Night can be made by clicking here and filling out a simple form. Reserve your time today, and get ready to have some fun! We look forward to seeing you there. |
