For your student in 5th or 6th grade at Apache, McAuliffe, Overland Park, Rising Star, or Sunflower elementary schools, please find key information in the attached files:

Students will always need their instrument, method book (Tradition of Excellence, Volume 1), and a pencil. A folding music stand is necessary for home practice and sometimes for concerts, but is not needed during class. Please read through the above attached files for more information on instruments, expectations and future potential with the Shawnee Mission West Band Program!
