Supply List
The following is information for you and your band student in preparation for the next school year.
Please have your student's instrument checked by a repair technician. There is nothing more frustrating for a young band student than to play an instrument that is not working. Summer is a great time to have them checked out.
All band students should bring their instruments on the second day of rehearsal.
