[WIWS Strings] Instrument Choices for Rising 5th Graders

[William Dolde]

For current 4th grade parents, please remember that it is likely your child will be able to switch to bass, cello, or viola next school year. As you may know, our instrumental program has changed and evolved over the years, and we are still working toward a stable, long term plan for the program (when the time is right, we would like to bring the winds program back for upper grades). In the meantime, it is relatively safe to assume that current 4th graders will have the same instrument choices next year as the current 5th grade (and it might be good to talk to parents of bass players before you give your child the option of playing bass). It is not time to switch yet, but keep this in mind as you consider buying or renting new instruments.
