Beginning Band

Beginning Band “Kick-Start” Lessons!

Incoming 5th grade (or brand new) band students are invited to be part of a “kick-off” week before school starts to get a jump start on their instruments. We directors highly recommend students attend if possible, as it really helps students get started successfully! 

Students will learn the basics of their instrument and leave with resources to get started playing. Cost is $20. We hope ALL incoming band students can attend! Please contact Jen Germundson to request financial assistance or with any questions at jgermundson@isd2149.org.
