Tharp Band

Hilliard THARP Beginning Band Program!

During the 2020-2021 school year, Hilliard sixth graders will have the opportunity to begin learning to play an instrument! In preparation for next school year, all current Hilliard fifth grade students are about to begin the journey of learning more about instrumental music and choosing which instrument on which they would like to experience the joy of making music! Thank you for your support and encouraging your band student to start his/her study of music. This investment of time, effort, and energy will produce lifelong dividends.

Whether you are new to the Hilliard Band Program or have had students participate in the past, we encourage you to look through all of the information on this website as many things have changed.
