May 24, 2022-- The district continued one of its coolest programs yesterday, allowing potential band and orchestra members to play around, literally.
The Instrument Test Drive is an opportunity for students to test drive a variety of musical instruments, meet teachers and students involved in music, and ask questions about joining band and orchestra.
The test drive took place during an open house at High School East, and was open to students in grades three through six and their parents. The Instrument Test Drive is a continuation of the elementary-level Play it Again, Toms River! program that started with a grant back in 2018. It's helped future school musicians connect with their favorite instruments ever since.
