Instrument Interviews
All interested students need to attend an Instrument Interview in order to meet with a director to select an instrument. Students will have the opportunity to try multiple instruments. During the Instrument Interview, we will be looking for a few attributes that are vital for any successful band member: high concentration skills, self-discipline, and a positive attitude. Previous musical ability is not required but will be considered. However, the best qualities are an upbeat attitude, enjoyment of music, and the desire to achieve to the best of one’s ability! Our main goal is that all 6th grade students at the middle school be placed in the elective where they will be most successful!
Instrument Interviews will take place at your middle school campus. If you cannot attend the interview scheduled for your campus’ date, please contact a band director to schedule an alternate time.
