Blanchard Memorial School Band has a strong history of supporting an instrumental music program for students in grades four through six. This instrumental music program gives our students a special introduction to music in a wonderful, supportive atmosphere and provides a good foundation and appreciation for music as they grow. It is among the leading elementary programs in Massachusetts, with 2 concert bands, a stage band and 3 ensembles. All students receive lessons from an accomplished faculty, and have the support of a strong parent organization. You can learn more here .
