Special Note for 6th Graders:

No need to purchase or rent an instrument now!  We will go through the instrument selection and try-out process during the first two weeks of school.  We will have a 6th Grade Parent Meeting TBA to discuss purchasing/renting an instrument.

Special Note for 7th & 8th Graders:

Yes!  Bring your instrument on your first day of band classes!  
Be sure to restock on reeds, valve oil, sticks, etc. before school begins!  Check the instrument supply list online at http://www.cmsmustangband.com/instrument--supply-list.html
