Hello Parents and Guardians, My name is Andres Keymolent and I am the Orchestra Director at Banning Unified School District. I hope you are all doing well and ready for orchestra to start. First thing, I do apologize for not having some clear information. I have been trying to figure our new website and app to send messages and have been unsuccessful. I think we have finally figured out the communications on the app for me. Orchestra will begin next week, the week of the 25th. The Week of 09/25/2023 will have all four schools begin orchestra. The schedule will be: Monday: Hemmerling at 10am Tuesday: Hoffer at 10am Thursday: Central at 10am Friday: Cabazon at 10am This will be the schedule of the elementary schools throughout the school year. All students should bring their instruments at their respective days. Students should bring all materials for class each week at their respective days. Please note, if the students do not have instruments, they are still encouraged to attend. We have three vendors for students and parents/guardians to rent instruments. They are Beaumont Music Center, Nick Rail, and Bertrand’s Music. Thank you all for your patients and for understanding. I am looking forward to begin orchestra with everyone. If you need further information, please email me at akeymolent@banning.k12.ca.us. Thank you all, Andres Keymolent Orchestra Director
