Music
4th and 5th grade students have the opportunity to learn a band instrument or a stringed instrument with Ms. Stephanie Hawks. Band and Strings meet once per week for 40 minutes.

private lessons
All music students are encouraged to also take private lessons. Ask your music teacher for a list of private lesson teachers if students are interested. Private lessons provide a student with more opportunity to play, increase their skill level, and to receive more personalized attention to fit their playing needs.
