6th Grade Band
A large body of research shows that students who participate in music tend to be happier, healthier, and more successful in school. In 6th grade, students have the opportunity to play flute, clarinet, alto saxophone, trumpet, trombone, or baritone in the school band. Students who learn to play an instrument in 6th grade perform at assemblies, evening concerts, and community events. Students in 6th grade band also have the opportunity to continue playing in middle, high school and college. If you are interested in joining band talk to Mr. Allen and click on the band handbook icon below for more information.
