Rochester Catholic Schools students have the opportunity to begin learning a band instrument in 5th grade. Beginning band instruments include: Flute, Clarinet, Alto Sax, Trumpet, Trombone and Percussion. Most of the learning happens in weekly small group lessons but they will come together to rehearse to play 2 concerts during the year. Lessons are on a rotating basis during the day. Students are responsible for providing their own instrument and lesson books.
Students also have the opportunity to play for school Masses. They can contact their school music teacher to sign up to play for Mass.
Register for band through the RCS Portal. For questions, contact Wendy Hanson at whanson@rcsmn.org.
