10:30 (approximately) - the rest of the school day in the Band and Orchestra rooms
We will have a rotation of students – (4 to 6) Students at a time will be fitted to the recommended instruments. Please instruct the students to wash their hands before the fitting session.


Important information
A letter was sent home to all 4th grade parents March 1 explaining the process.

Later in the week the students will be given a form to take home. The form will indicate which instrument Anderson Music recommends. The students will need to return the form by April 1 stating which instrument they have chosen or if they will be participating in the instrumental program.
