Middle School Bands |
||||
|
Both 6th and 7th grade bands meet at Piedmont Middle School in separated classes so that students can get more individual attention on their instrument and improve more quickly. The middle school band schedule is as follows:
The performance schedule usually includes a concert in December and one in May, as well as contest performances. The 6th grade has attended band contests in Catoosa, Marlow, Mounds, Deer Creek, and Moore in past years. The 7th grade band either attends the OSSAA district contest at Edmond Santa Fe in early March, or another festival depending on the scheduling needs of the group. We realize that parents of our new 6th grade students have many questions regarding purchasing or renting instruments for your student. If your student plays flute, clarinet, trumpet, trombone, or percussion, they can either take part in our Instrument Usage program, or go to a local music store for their instrument. If your student plays alto saxophone, you will need to rent or purchase from a local music store. If your student plays French horn or tuba, the band program will provide an instrument for your student to use, but you will need to purchase a mouthpiece for your child. Mouthpieces may be purchased through the band program. |
