Student Resources: Stevenson Instrumental Music Program
Handbooks are distributed to students at the beginning of each Instrumental Music season as follows:
● The Instrumental Music Handbook is for all Stevenson High School students that have a band class during the school day at SHS.
● The Marching Band Handbook is for all members of the Marching Band, no matter which school they attend.
● Most band students will receive both Handbooks and will be required to complete and return contracts acknowledging receipt.
Something that often gets neglected by students is instrument maintenance. Proper preventative care and maintenance, whether it is a school instrument or personally owned, can help minimize the need for repairs:
Should something go wrong (at home or at Solo & Ensemble for example) however, refer to these documents for assistance:
