5th Grade Instrument fitting will take place at HMS from 4-7pm.


5th Grade Instrument Fitting-April 22nd, 4-7pm
Sessions are held in the gym and are “come-and-go” style. All future band students need
to come to instrument fittings as not every person can make a sound on every instrument!
We need to help you find the instrument that fits you best and create a balanced band so
we sound good!
Your student needs to complete this process before beginning band class. If your student
did not register for band class but would like to join, he/she may do so at this event.
