Greetings 4^th and 5^th grade parents,

Is our child interested in learning a new instrument? Does your child already play an instrument? The Arete Prep Beginning Orchestra, Beginning Band and Intermediate Orchestra clubs are excited to invite your students to join us! Students have the unique opportunity to meet twice per week with the teacher: once as a full group and again with similar instruments to work on more specific technical aspects of playing. Students will also have the opportunity to perform several times throughout the year. The fee is $40 and this pays for their music, books, and other miscellaneous communal supplies. Students will need to rent or purchase their own instruments (Milano’s in Mesa is an excellent resource). The clubs will start back up after Parent-Teacher conferences on October 19^th.
