Our Sponsors
The Gifford Middle School Band provides an outstanding musical experience for more than 230 students in grades 6 through 8. In the school’s history, the band has earned statewide, regional and national recognition for musical excellence by consistently earning superior ratings at the FBA Music Performance Assessments and has performed at the University of Florida, Stetson University, Florida Southern College, the University of Georgia, and the Music For All National Middle School Music Festival, and the Florida Music Educator’s Association Conference in Tampa, Florida.
As district funding for programs such as ours continues to decline, we need financial support from members and businesses of our community. School arts programs are required to cover many, if not all, of their expenses without the school district’s assistance.
We greatly appreciate the support from our current and future sponsors as they help us in all of our achievements!
