Concert Percussion Information

The following materials are mandatory for all high school percussionists. During the first week of school, we will determine what each student needs to add and/or replace to their collection. Equipment will be ordered and shipped within the first two weeks of school. Once this order arrives, students will receive their equipment once payment has been submitted. Students needing to add or supplement throughout the year can use the ordering information found at the bottom of this page.
