The purpose of this handbook is to help you understand the nature of the instrumental music program and to offer you resources and suggestions for helping your child become the best musician he or she can be!

We Believe…

· that all children should have the opportunity to learn to play a band instrument.

· that an instrumental music education not only helps a child grow musically but intellectually, socially, and emotionally as well.

· that performing either by ones self or with a group is a rewarding and enjoyable experience that can last a lifetime.

· that band is, and should be, fun!
