Could its next chapter inspire a young student to fall in love with band?

That clarinet, trumpet, flute—or other band instrument that once filled your home with music—may be ready for an encore.

Martin County Schools’ growing Elementary Band Program is seeking previously loved instruments to help our youngest musicians take their very first steps into the world of music.

We have an immediate need for 1 clarinet, 1 trumpet, and 1 flute, and anticipate additional needs as the program continues to grow.

For a new student, your donated instrument could become more than something they learn to play. It could be the beginning of confidence, creativity, friendships, performances, and a love of music that stays with them for years to come.

🎺 Pass along the music.

Donated instruments may be dropped off at any MCS campus or at MCS Central Office, 407 East Boulevard, Williamston.

🌿📚 Bringing reading to life with STEM!

After reading about rain forests, Mrs. Gurganus' 2nd grade students used what they learned to create rain forest animals during a small-group STEM activity! 🐸🐒🦋

We love seeing our CUBS read, learn, create, and make connections in such a fun, hands-on way! 💙🐻✨
