Welcome! This website is a resource for all 4th and 5th grade band students
at Beekman and Vail Farm elementary. Please take a look around. I will
periodically be updating this announcement page with news of our progress or
information about concerts. The concert schedule page will also be updated
with information about Arlington high school, middle school and other local
performances. Please consider attending a concert at one of these venues to
give students exposure to new and exciting music. It is especially energizing
to see an Arlington middle or high school concert and hear the quality of
music our elementary students will be performing in a few short years!
Also included on this website are links to the lesson schedule and the
practice chart. They are distributed at the beginning of each marking period,
but please feel free to print out new ones if needed.
Lastly, many of you are visiting this website as a result of a NewsFlash
reminding your band student to bring his or her instrument for lessons or
rehearsals. I will only be sending these NewsFlashes out after long weekends,
holidays or snow days. If at any point you would like to be removed from the
NewsFlash list or need to change your email address, please let me know.
Thank you for your commitment to music in our students' lives!
