Welcome to GBMS Choir, Piano, and Barbershop, Beautyshop, and Shoppettes!

Welcome to the Gwendolyn Brooks Middle School Choral and Piano Programs! 
I am delighted to be working with you and your student this year!   The music  program at Brooks is designed to help each student improve their own musical skills, expand their musical knowledge and understanding, and provide opportunities for students to grow personally and musically through musical rehearsals and performances.

This is where you can visit to learn all of the important information about what is going on in our classroom and at school. I hope you are able to find everything that you need, keeping you informed of the procedures, events, and learning activities for the 2012-2013 school year.  I look forward to working with you and your student.
