Orchestra 4th Grade Families-- A Note from the Teacher I can’t wait to get you all introduced to the orchestra instruments!

Thanks to all the families that have been emailing and making sure they haven’t missed anything. Click on the following instrument names. The words are linked to some videos introducing the different instruments. Feel free to watch those with your child so that they can start thinking about what instrument they would like to play.

Activity Passes Passes were distributed to those students who purchased them through registration or at a later time. It is a requirement that these activity passes be shown for admittance to each home athletic event. Students without activity passes will need to pay to get in to the event.

If you purchased one for your WE student and did not find one in the child's backpack, please contact the office.
