Band

Student Activities

All students in grades 3, 4, or 5 are eligible for the instrumental program. Third graders can play a string instrument while fourth and fifth graders can play a string and/or a band instrument. Each child will receive a weekly thirty-minute group lesson with one of our instrumental music teachers. This lesson will be given during the school day and scheduled by the instrumental music teacher in cooperation with the child’s classroom teacher. As each child progresses, at the instrumental music teacher’s discretion, they will join the school band or orchestra.

The Heckman Band consists of 4^th and 5^th graders who have achieved a certain level with their instrument practices. There are two performances each year – the winter and Spring Concerts.
