Welcome to the 2010 school year! We have lots of fun things in store for us this year. 8th Grade students interested in performing with the Percussion Ensemble can sign up to join during TEE - time. We will meet once a week to practice various songs in the ensemble.
6th and 7th Grade students will have the option of African Drumming, to introduce students to the world of Percussion and rhythm.
Be sure to visit the new Crestwood MS Music Wiki!
The Crestwood Middle School Bands are comprised of 6th grade students in the beginner band and 7th and 8th Grade students in the Intermediate Band.

Percussion Ensemble Rehearsals
Due to schedule conflicts during the upcoming week, I am going to hold a Percussion Ensemble rehearsal after school on Tuesday January 12, 2010 from 3:15 - 4:15PM. All Crestwood Middle School students interested in learning percussion instruments are invited to attend. This rehearsal is intended to go over basic percussion rehearsal etiquette and proper use of the instruments with an introduction of basic Drum Rudiments that will be essential for the students to learn prior to tackling any piece of music.
*Future rehearsals will be held on Wednesdays after school from 3:15 - 4:15PM, this week's rehearsal schedule was altered due to the scheduling conflicts.
Parents do not have to attend rehearsals. Students should have a ride home established for 4:15 at CMS prior to rehearsal.
Thank you and have a great weekend!
