Orchestra

Starting in 3rd grade, students at Palms Elementary have the opportunity to join the orchestra and learn to play one of the following instruments: flute, clarinet, saxophone, trumpet, trombone, violin, or cello. Orchestra is a pull-out program, in which students who wish to participate receive weekly instruction and are loaned instruments free of charge! Students learn music literacy, instrumental skills, and create music based on the CA Music Standards. Students are expected to practice their instruments at home to make progress. Orchestra is a great way to learn a new skill and develop a lifelong passion for music while creating friends outside of the homeroom.
