Summer 2017 Please consider attending a local summer music program if you are staying in the area for most of the summer months, and/or weekly lessons with a private teacher. Please see the Private String Instruction page.

A couple of __summer programs__ that might interest you:

Wissahickon School District has an evening pops orchestra and a Strings Week, see attached flyer for more info. Registration has been extended until the first week of camp. For more info, please contact Mr. Ken Miller, Director, at km.summerpops@gmail.com or 215-672-8365.

Also there is a week of summer Strings at Settlement Music School Willow Grove branch. []

__Instrument rental__: Parents of students with 9-month rentals from Music and Arts: you will receive a letter via USPS mail with your options for rentals. Please read the letter carefully and choose the option that is best suited for you.

__Returns__: Please call Music and Arts at 888-731-5396 to obtain a Return Authorization Number (RA #). Then you can bring the instrument to school and drop it off at the orchestra room.

Please consider continuing your rentals during the summer months. If you do return the instrument for the summer, be aware that you will start with a whole new contract for the next year, losing any credit earned from this year’s rental. All rentals for September 2017 should be confirmed with the music store by the end of August 2017.

If you have any questions and/or concerns, feel free to contact me by email: cnoonan@udsd.org.

Thank you for a great year of music making! See you next school year!
