Where should my child store his/her instrument, at HHS?
For Orchestra, in-school cellos, basses and bows are provided, and are stored in racks, in the Orchestra room. Cellists typically bring in their own instrument for concerts, however. Violas and violins have racks in the Orchestra room – these are not assigned, but there is plenty of room for all. Band students have lockers, with locks, in the band room, which can accommodate all different sizes of instruments. These are assigned by Mr. Whitcomb, at the beginning of the year. Some students do acquire a second instrument, to have one at home for practice, and one to keep at school. As there is plenty of locker space for all, the most cost-effective solution is to make use of the school-provided lockers.
