Success.

AcademicsMusic helps to strengthen and raise a student's academic understanding. Our band program is one of the few that can be offered as an Honors Course, as long as prerequisites and requirements are met.
|
SocialCreating friendships in band programs can be life long for many of our students. This makes you a BNI Marching Warrior for life. You will be part of our family as much as the bonds you build will be part of yours.
|
FutureMany of our students have great success in music. This helps them get scholarships to colleges and universities across the country, both in academics as well as music. Many students can earn scholarships from higher education programs simply for playing the instrument they learn here at BNI.

I love the BNI Band because it is very student oriented, allowing students to collaborate on marching shows, music, and smaller branches of the band to make our band uniquely ours."

We Promise You the Best of our
Award Winning Program
The BNI Marching Band, Concert Band, Jazz Ensemble, and Mariachi Bands are all award winning. They receive accolades from parades, marching competitions, jazz festivals and so much more. Such Awards include: the Espirit de Corps award for its performance in the Chicago Columbus Day Parade, gold medal ratings at Indiana State School Music Association competitions, and gold star wins at South Suburban College Jazz festivals.
BNI Marching Band is one of the best bands in the N.W. Indiana and the Chicago metropolitan area just by how much talent we have and by how hard we work. We can do anything because we are driven. I love the fact that Mr. C lets me express my love of football by letting me play and then allowing me to run to my spot during halftime to march in the show. Where else does that happen? I highly recommend anyone who plays a band instrument and plays sports joining! "
