MATERIALS RECOMMENDED (All Students, All Grade Levels)
The program provides students with an EWMSIMP T-shirt, all music and books needed.  We encourage students to purchase their own binder to store their sheet music.  Students are responsible for bringing all materials and supplies required for class each day - books, music, instrument, pencils, tuners, etc. All students are encouraged to work with a metronome/tuner and local music stores have several options for purchase.
