WELCOME TO THE GILBERT BAND PAGE!

Band is more than just playing an instrument; it is immersing your child in a culture of successful students and teachers who care about education. It challenges each child to use the creative side of his or her brain while, at the same time, learning a foreign language…MUSIC.

All of the current data clearly states that students involved in music education academically out perform their non-musical counterparts.

Every destination starts with a decision to embark on a journey. The Gilbert Intermediate School band program is the start of an instrumental music journey that can last a lifetime!

We can’t promise that every child will be a musical prodigy, but we can promise they will learn, laugh, and grow along the way.
Students should have all materials and instruments by the week of August 18th.  
Remember that instrument rental fees may be paid by semester or for the year.  Please try to have a payment done by the end of September if possible.
