BAND Welcome to the band program at St. Mary's School. Your first opportunity to begin instrumental music is in the fourth grade. We will have a beginning band recruitment night on Tuesday, August 27, at 5:00 P.M. here at school. At the time you will be able to acquire an instrument. A note will be sent with details. All band students will have a lesson during the school day on Tuesday or Thursday, either individually or in small groups.
