Band information for students in grades 4-6

 September, 2020

 

Dear Village Elementary Families,                                                                                                    

 The 2020-2021 school year is here, and now is the opportunity to sign-up for the Village Band Program.  The Hilton Central School District begins instrumental music in the 4th grade.  Students can also start in 5th or 6th grade.  This year, your child will have an opportunity to learn how to play a band instrument, and become part of our successful instrumental music program as well.

 All interested students and parents should fill out the online Google form or return the permission slip to Mr. Weber by September 21, 2020.  Each student should select three different instrument choices.  In many cases, the first choice will be the instrument selected for your child.  However, some students will be asked to consider a second or third choice for the most ideal band instrumentation.  Based on experience, we almost always need more students to play the trombone, baritone, and tuba.

 If you wish to learn about the band instruments offered for instruction in the Hilton Central School District, please watch the Band Video to see more information.

 The annual Fall Beginning Band Parent Information Night is on Monday, September 21, 2020 at 7:00pm on ZOOM.  A link will be sent prior to the meeting. A detailed overview of the band program and information on how to obtain instruments will be presented at this online meeting in the Fall. 

 We look forward to hearing from you, and am excited about working with your child in the Village Elementary Instrumental Music Program!
