The concert bands at MMR give students in Grades 4 through 8 an opportunity to learn how to play an instrument, how to read music, and how to play in a musical group. Lessons are held during 30 minute sessions on Wednesdays throughout the school year. Junior band, which is for all beginners, starts in November, and is held from 8:00am to 8:30am every Wednesday. Senior Band is for students who have been playing their instrument for at least two years. Band practice is held Wednesdays after school until 4:15pm.
