Recommended Repair Tecnicians
We strive to provide the highest level of instrumental music education at Terrebonne High School. A large part of student success is playing on a quality instrument that is in good working order. It is recommended that all woodwind and brass instruments are "tuned up" at least once a year. This will extend the life of the instrument and prevent the student frustration of trying to learn something new on a sub par instrument.
