Music Lessons
Instrumental music is an integral part of the curriculum. In grade three, string classes begin. During the fourth grade, students begin private lessons. The school requires the continuation of these lessons through twelfh grade. Rental or purchase of an instrument and payment for lessons are the responsibility of the family. There is a small fund for music scholarships. Awards are based on demonstrated financial need and merit. Applications are available in the Business Office each fall.
