The cello is a bigger string instrument with the unique ability to play both low and higher sounds.  After the violin, the cello is next in line when it comes to playing the melody, however cellos also often get to enjoy playing the foundation. Due to its size, the Cello music be played sitting down, but don't worry about playing a large instrument - string instruments are very special because they come in smaller sizes and you just exchange your instrument for a bigger one as you grow! 

For the safety of our students and drivers, large musical instruments that are too large to be transported on school buses are not permitted.  This applies to cellos, percussion instruments and trombones.  If you have questions regarding the District's safety procedure regarding transporting musical instruments, information can be found on the Transportation page of the District website.
