Continuing/Beginning String Students

Dear First Year String Players and Parents,
Congratulations again on a spectacular concert!!! At this point we should be thinking about what to do with our instruments and “String Builder” books.

Continuing my string instrument next year

Violin/Viola/Cello/Bass
If you rented an instrument, I suggest you rent it again for the summer and following school year. If you feel that your size has changed, you may have to exchange your instrument for a bigger one (the people at the store can measure you). However, I can also measure you!

**You may keep your “String Builder” book for the summer so we can use it again next year. If you are afraid that it may get lost, return it to me and I will give it back to you next year. Please note that if a book is lost, you will have to buy a replacement for Miller Avenue.
**Cello players please note that in 4th and 5th grade you are eligible to rent a Miller Avenue cello for $80.00. However, Miller Avenue celli are in much worse condition than those from a vendor!
**Bass Players please keep your bass at home for the summer if you will be continuing next year. You may want to bring it in for tuning before the end of the school year.
**Summer Music – See me if you have not received information and are interested.

Not Continuing my string instrument next year

Violin/Viola/Cello
If you rented your instrument from Family Melody Center, you may return it to me by June 20th and Family Melody Center will come pick it up. If you rented from somewhere else, it is your responsibility to return your instrument to where it came from.
Bass
All non-continuing bass players must return their bass to me by Friday June 13th. You may leave the bass in my room if I am not there at the time.

***Please note that all non-continuing string players must return their “String Builder” book to me by Friday June 13th. All books should have the student’s name written lightly on the top inside cover. Therefore, if I am not in my room, you may leave it on my desk or in my mail box. All lost books must be replaced.

Have a Great Summer!!
Ms. Fasano
 

End of Year

Dear String Players and Parents,

Congratulations on a spectacular concert, and good luck to all of our 5th graders who are moving up to the Middle School!! We’ve had a wonderful year, and I hope you all have a great summer. Here is some information about the end of the year.

5th Graders

If you have a Miller Avenue Cello or Bass you must return it to me on or before Tuesday, June 17th. You must also return any lesson books I have given you.

4th Graders

If your Miller Avenue Cello or Bass is in good shape, you may be able to keep it for the summer, along with your lesson book. However, if you are not going to play your Cello or Bass next year, you must return it to me by Tuesday, June 17th along with your “String Builder” book.
**If you are interested in the S-WR Summer Music Program, and have not received information, see me for a brochure! Have a great summer!!!!

Sincerely,
Ms. Fasano
