Martin G. Atkins School

Welcome Bearcats!

Beginning Band information will go home on Friday, May 17, 2013.  If your child plans on joining band for the 2013-14 school year, they need to have an instrument the first week of school.  Below is the the Herter Music Center information for anything that you will need.  Herter will be at Atkins School on May 29, 2013 for an Instrument Night.  If your child would like to try out various instruments they should come out and you can get information too!  They will be in room 303 at Atkins from 4-6 PM.

Students will need their own instrument, book and supplies to attend band class in the fall.  Students will be using Essential Elements Book I for the the 2013-14 school year.  Please look for the packet being sent home and get those forms back to sign up for band!!!!  Should you have any questions please let Ms. Ricker know before the end of the school year.  

Herter Music Center in Bay City can help you with all the supplies and books that you need.  It is unfortunate that their Saginaw store closed this past summer.  However, a rep from Herter comes to Atkins School every Monday.  You can call the store and order the supplies you need over the phone with a credit or debit card and they will bring the items to the school on the following Monday.  You can do the same if you are ordering an instrument for your beginning band students.  They assured me that things can be taken care over the phone so that you don't have to drive all the way to Bay City.  Please contact me via email or phone if you should have any questions.  I look forward to having your child in class.
