Leon Sheffield Magnet School- Decatur, Alabama

🎶 3rd Grade Recorders! 🎶

Our third graders are ready to make some music! 🎵 This year, students will learn to play the recorder during music class. For most of the school year, recorders will stay in the classroom so students can learn, practice, and make music together.

At the end of the school year, students will get to take their recorder home and keep the music going! 🎶🏠

📅 Orders are due Friday, September 4th.

• Cash (exact change)
