Hello MHS band students and parents,
Welcome to another year of Middleton High School Band! September is fast approaching, and we're so excited to start another year of making music together.
1. Please BRING YOUR INSTRUMENT on the first full day of school! (9/2 or 9/3)
2. Welcome Night! August 25th, 6:30pm*
We hope to see all band parents (and especially 9th grade parents) at our welcome night on Monday, 8/25! Come learn all about the band program and how you and your student can get involved in our diverse offerings. 6:30pm in the band room, with light refreshments served beforehand.
* For those interested, MHS Theatre is kicking off at 5:30pm; Orchestra and Choir at 6:30pm.

4. Need a Locker or School Instrument?
All students should fill out this form by the first day of school. It asks whether you need a band locker and/or a school instrument.
The rental fee for the 2025-26 school year is $125, and the instrument is yours for the school year. Percussionists pay a $25 fee to use the instruments at school. Lockers are free. All fees go directly into the band department repair budget and are automatically waived if you qualify for free/reduced lunch.
The school mostly rents the largest instruments (think tubas and bassoons), but we also have a limited number of other instruments available primarily for students in need.
If you need financial assistance with any of these supplies, no problem. Please reach out to the band teachers or student services for your house.
If we haven't seen you already during marching band: we're looking forward to getting back together in the fall! Enjoy the remainder of your summer, and get ready for a fun and exciting year of music!
