Foxborough Regional Charter School
Instrument Rent to Own Option
For your convenience the Foxborough Regional Charter School offers a student instrumental
rental agreement that is competitive with local vendors.
The Foxborough Regional Charter School Instrumental Rental Program is focused on providing
both affordable and good quality instruments for students. By using the guide below, we can
provide a quality instrument and necessary accessories that will make your child’s instrumental
music experience a positive one.
The rental program at the school is a rent to own option to benefit parents whose children are
interested in playing an instrument in the Foxboro Regional Charter School Orchestra. For the
efficiency of the program, parents are asked to make all payments in a timely manner. Students
whose payments are deficient or students who no longer wish to be in the program are asked:
1. to return the instrument to the Integrated Arts Instructional Leader or Orchestra Conductor
2. or pay the balance of the outstanding purchase price to keep the instrument.
Instrumental Rental is a two year agreement. The fee is paid monthly over a period of 24
months beginning in June 2014 with the last payment being paid in May of 2016.
Instruments provided by the rental agreement are listed below at the following rates:
$30 per month: Violin; Viola; Clarinet*; Flute; Piccolo; Trumpet; Trombone; Drums/Percussion
$35 per month: Cello
$60 per month: Double Bass; French Horn; Baritone; Tuba (*All students interested in playing Alto or
Tenor Saxophone must first take Clarinet for two years).
Rental or Purchase of specialty instruments such as oboe, bassoon, and English horn must be arranged with
the music department on an individual basis.
Scholarships based on financial hardship can be arranged on an individual basis by speaking to the Orchestra
Conductor or the Integrated Arts Instructional Leader.
All of the rental payments you make can be applied to pay down the instrument should you
choose to purchase it at any time. If you wish to pay off your instrument, please contact the
orchestra director for instructions for requesting a pay-off amount.
Protection for your Rental Instrument
Foxborough Regional Charter School provides general maintenance and care for general wear and

Change of Instrument
If your child should need to change instruments during the first six months of the rental
agreement they may trade in their instrument once for another with the amount paid towards the
original applied to the new instrument! Adjustments to payments or payment schedule may be
necessary to reflect cost of new instrument.
If your child is playing violin, viola please refer to the chart below for choosing the correct size.
Have your child hold out their left arm to the side and face forward. With palm up, measure from under the
chin to the middle of the palm. If you are unsure, the director will measure your child.
