Alamo School is pleased to offer Hand Chimes as an after school enrichment program for 3rd, 4th and 5th grade students. The starting date for Chimes will be the week of August 28. This exciting class allows each student to learn to read music and to work in an environment built completely on teamwork. Because of the nature of the instrument, there is an 8 member minimum for each class and a 12 member maximum for each class.
This also means that there must be commitment to the program. Classes are held once a week after school from 2:30-3:30 and regular attendance is a must. Chimes I (first year students) will rehearse on Mondays and Chimes II (continuing or those with musical training) will rehearse on Tuesdays. Depending on enrollment, the two groups may be combined.
Please come to the informational parent meeting during Back to School Night on August 15 from 6:00-6:30 p.m. in the MPR.
