St. Fidelis School Band

We are very proud of our St. Fidelis School Band. Every child in Grades 3 through 8 has the opportunity to join the band. They may choose the instrument they wish to learn and lessons are held during the school day. The instruments include: flute, trumpet, clarinet, trombone, saxophone, bells, and drums. Two band concerts are held each year, at Christmas time and in the Spring. Instruction is provided by Paul Effman Music Service.

A recruitment assembly is scheduled for the Fall. At that time, students and parents receive all information regarding the program. Students (gr. 3-8) interested in playing an instrument receive lessons in small groups during time periods that are flexible so that academic time is not impacted. The service provides highly trained educators along with a skilled manager to regularly oversee the program. Instruments are available through a rental or purchase program at rates substantially below market.
