(Don't use Guitar Shops, Pawn Shops, etc.)
Every student will need their own instrument at home to practice and in class for rehearsal:
Violin and Viola: This will be the same instrument that you use in class (traditional/hybrid/virtual).
Cello & Bass: You will have your personal instrument that is for home practice (and concerts) and you will use a school instrument in class (Traditional/Hybrid). Cello students who wish to play their personal instrument in class may do so as long as you have a way to safely bring it back and forth from home to school (the bus is not a very safe mode of transport for larger instruments).
Please use the links above to find teacher approved instrument shops both locally and online.
School Instrument Usage:
We have a limited number of school instruments that can be loaned to a student based on need and availability.
We ask that before requesting to use a school instrument that parents first check into getting your own instrument as there are many cheaper alternatives to purchasing an instrument that can make it possible to get your own instrument easily and upgrade as you grow or improve.
There is a very significant positive impact on the level of commitment in learning when a student has their own instrument. Students that have their own good quality instruments are more likely to take ownership for their learning, practice to progress more quickly, and be more motivated to continue playing long term.
Please contact your orchestra teacher if you have any questions or need help!

Although this is not a professional recording, this video gives a good example of one of our regular concerts during the school year!
This is one of the first performances during the year in October each year.
At the regular Monster Mash Concerts students dress in costume, there is a pumpkin contest vote with the pumpkins on display, and there is candy and trick or treating at the end of the performance. This is always a fun event that we really enjoy putting on each year with our Ramay, Woodland, and FHS Orchestra students!
