flexible options to secure one:

2. Order via Cash/Check: Send $5 cash or a check (payable to PVPV Rawlings Elementary School) with the printable form.
3. Bring a Recorder from Home: Previously owned instruments or recorders passed down from older siblings are welcome!
⚠️ CRITICAL REQUIREMENT:
ALL recorders must be permanently labeled with the student’s name for quick identification in the music room.
