If you have any items to share, please contact Sydney Mercurio or Jeanette van Ginhoven.

Hey ACE 5th graders, consider joining Greenville Middle Academy's 6th Grade Band.
In the fall, students will be able to try their instruments of interest. And a parent information packet will be sent home with each student. This packet will explain how to obtain an instrument and everything you need to know about getting started in band. Please do not purchase or rent an instrument until you have received this packet, because it contains valuable information concerning instruments and supplies.
Here is more information on the Greenville Middle Academy Band.
