Getting your child interested in music, likely started before middle school, however, 6th grade is a great place for them to begin the exploration of instruments! Whether they have had the opportunity to play before, or have never even touched an instrument, the PCMS Concert Band is a great place to begin exploring the magic of music. In 6th grade, students will begin to learn the basics of reading music, proper ways to conduct themselves during concerts and about the instrument they have chosen. They will learn how to properly hold, play, and care for their instruments. Did your child miss the opportunity to be a part of band in 6th grade, but is showing interest as a 7th or 8th grader? No problem! Mrs. Copeland can help your child find the perfect instrument based on their talent and interests. It's never too late to begin the magical journey of being a part of the PCMS Concert Band! If you have any questions, please email Mrs. Copeland. You can find her contact information HERE
