Dear Parents,

We are starting to play instruments in music class as students have

named their top three instruments and have found out what they will be
playing for the year. Students will have flexibility to try new instruments if
availability opens up. Students that are playing an instrument that requires
a mouthpiece have an option of buying their own mouthpiece using school
cash online. This sale will be open until December so students have until
then to decide if they would like their own mouthpiece or not. The pricing
for these mouthpieces are listed below:

Mouthpiece Cost
Clarinet $22.50
Alto Sax $24.50
Tenor Sax $26.25
Trumpet $30
Trombone/Baritone $36.15
French Horn $30

In addition to these mouthpieces, students are provided with two

reeds at the beginning of the music term. If students require any additional
reeds, it will be $2 per additional reed which can be brought in to music
class. Buying a mouthpiece is optional of course and if you have questions,
please email me at kmclaugh@hwdsb.on.ca.

Thank you,

Kelly McLaughlin
Instrumental Music Teacher
