The orchestra program at Rudder Middle School offers string instruction for everyone at every level. Beginning, intermediate, and advanced orchestra classes rehearse daily during school hours and are free of charge.
Instruction is offered on violin, viola, cello, and bass.
Local music stores offer very reasonable rental or lease plans for their instruments, but please do not obtain one until your child has been properly sized. The orchestra program provides a great foundation for life. For charity, there will most likely be two required off-campus performances added to the schedule. Only students who are passing all classes may participate in off-campus performances.
