Morning Strings
Dear Parents and Guardians,
We’re excited to announce that the Morning Strings Violin Program is returning to Paradise Canyon Elementary for the 2025–2026 school year! The program is open to all 4th and 5th grade students—whether they are brand new to the violin, returning from last year, or have some prior experience.
Classes will be held before school from 7:00 to 7:50 a.m., beginning September 2nd, in Portable 1 at PCES. As part of the district-wide Morning Strings program, students will have the opportunity to learn a new instrument, build confidence, and perform in concerts throughout the year. This program also works well alongside Conga and choir, so students may participate in both if they wish.
Violins are provided at no cost during the program. Parents will only need to purchase New Directions for Strings Violin Book 1 and a shoulder rest once their child is issued the correct violin size—both of which can be used throughout their musical education in intermediate school and beyond. If purchasing these items is a challenge, please don’t worry—we’ll make sure your child has what they need to participate.
If your child would like to join, please complete the registration form or find it on the school website. Thank you!!
Warmly,
Sara Basso

Estimados padres y tutores:
Nos complace anunciar que el programa de violín regresa a Paradise Canyon para el año escolar 2025-2026. El programa está abierto a todos los estudiantes de 4.º y 5.º grado, ya sean nuevos en el violín, que hayan regresado del año pasado o que ya tengan experiencia.
Las clases se impartirán antes del horario escolar, de 7:00 a 7:50 a. m., a partir del 2 de septiembre, en el aula portátil 1 de PCES. Como parte del programa Morning Strings, que abarca todo el distrito, los estudiantes tendrán la oportunidad de aprender a tocar un nuevo instrumento, desarrollar confianza y participar en conciertos durante todo el año. Este programa también se complementa con la conga y el coro, por lo que los estudiantes pueden participar en ambos si lo desean.
Los violines se proporcionan sin costo durante el programa. Los padres solo tendrán que comprar el libro New Directions for Strings Violin Book 1 y una hombrera una vez que su hijo reciba el tamaño correcto de violín; ambos podrán usarse durante toda su educación musical en la escuela secundaria y en adelante. Si le resulta difícil comprar estos artículos, no se preocupe; nos aseguraremos de que su hijo/a tenga lo necesario para participar.
Si su hijo/a desea participar, complete el formulario de inscripción o encuéntrelo en el sitio web de la escuela. ¡Gracias!
Atentamente,
Sara Basso
