H.+R.+Edmunds



= At [|H.R. Edmunds Elementary School] =

The music program at H.R. Edmunds is very lucky in our associations. With the help of MusiCopia and the generous donations of Joe Field, the music program at H.R. Edmunds has been thriving in recent years, and we expect it to continue to grow in years to come. The band program offers music lessons in flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, and percussion. Each student receives a 45-minute music lesson each week as well as the opportunity to perform in two concerts each school year. Many of our students also pursue music in outside venues, such as church and community music groups, for which we are very proud of them.




 * Spring Concert Date is June 3rd at 10:00 am and 11:00 am, dress rehearsal is June 2nd at 2:00 pm**
