Welcome to 5th Grade Orchestra! I am excited to begin teaching you about the stringed instruments! For specific information about your child's school, please click on the school name to the left of this message. Please feel free to contact me via email (cynthia.prior@dmschools.org) or by calling your school and leaving me a message. I teach at ten different schools, so I will not be there to answer your call every day. You can use the links above to sign up for lessons or watch a video from Meredith Middle School about being in orchestra.
The links below show some videos of people playing orchestra instruments in some songs you might know as well as some music by past and present Black composers.
