The Lake Washington School District provides group instrumental music instruction for all 4th and 5th graders. The goals of this program are to introduce the student to performing music on an instrument, working within a group of other musicians, and help them progress to performing groups at the Middle School and Senior High level.
Orchestra classes meet before school at Clara Barton Elementary with Ms. Chen and Mrs. Dolgaya. The students will be bussed to their elementary schools after class.
For more information about the elementary orchestra program, please contact
Irene Chen at Rockwell Elementary: ichen@lwsd.org
