Save the Date - Band Tryouts Scheduled for Monday, August 11 for Rising 4th Grade

Hello Future 4th Grade families, 

As this school year comes to an end, I wanted to take a moment to thank you all for you continued support of the music and arts programs at St. Bens! Through the years, I have taught a lot of your children, and it has been a fantastic experience working with you in helping them grow, not only as musicians. 

As your children walk out of their 3rd grade classrooms and look forward to the possible adventures in 4th grade, I wanted to bring your attention and invite you all to be a part of a great musical journey that is available for your children next year. 

Every year, the 4th graders are invited to learn about and join the St. Ben's Band Program. This program meets twice a week and performs throughout the year in concerts and community performances. 

Please join us on August 11th at 9:30am in the Upper School Library to learn more about the band program expectations, what it takes to rent an instrument, and have your children safely try a bunch of options before they make their decision to join band or not. Joining us in this informational meeting does not automatically enroll your child in the program.

PLEASE USE THIS LINK TO RSVP for tryouts. We will send reminder emails during the summer.

If you have any specific questions, please reach out to Mrs. Agata Ballenger at aballenger@stbenedict.com 

We hope to see you all there! 

Mrs. Agata Ballenger
