Ms. Tessier 

Your child needs a special flute: A Tonette, A Conn Song Flute, or a Flutophone.  All of these are types of beginner flutes.

You can purchase these at your local music stores.  Call for availability.

The Horn Doctor    ~ 272-4676

The Music Man      ~ 561-7001

We will begin playing these flutes in about three weeks.

If you have a beginner flute, bring it to school to be put in a class collection with your child’s name on the actual flute and the box.

If you do not have one please buy one ASAP!

If you can not afford one please send a note to the music teacher to let him know.  Something will be provided but it may be a recorder, which is not the ideal tool for kindergarteners.

Thank you for your support,

Mr. Chuck Stafford
