Garland High School is one of only two high schools in GISD that offers Class Piano. All levels of students can apply to be in the class. There are opportunities for all students from beginner to advanced through the leveled classes offered at GHS.  

In addition to classroom experience, students are provided the opportunity to perform recitals for their parents, family, friends and peers. The recitals consist of solos, duets, trios and quartets, and playing in an ensemble is exciting, fun and entertaining.

Students may also participate in the state’s Piano Solo Contest, and depending on the rating earned, a student may advance to state. We have several qualify for the Texas State Solo and Ensemble Contest yearly.
