Forms can be downloaded here.

There will also be private lessons offered through the Pentucket Music Academy for $27/half hour.  

Please note that the Jamboree for 6/14 has been moved inside the High School Auditorium due to a forecast for rain.  Strings students are to report to the band room at 5:30.  Students are asked to unpack quickly and make a single-file line for tuning.  Please wear your PRSD Music t-shirt or Pentucket green.  Students are asked to stay and watch the rest of the concert from the audience after they play, if possible.  Also, please note that during part of this time I will need to be at the "instrument petting zoo" in the cafeteria to meet incoming students and parents with questions about the program.  I will stay afterward to speak with parents whom I have not yet met, etc.  Thank you for your cooperation with the many changes we have made to this event.  I apologize that many students will be unable to attend now, but I do feel in retrospect that the music department's decision to postpone was correct, since temperatures topped 90 degrees and we experienced severe thunderstorms during the time at which the Jamboree was to take place.
