Brandon Schools Instrumental Music Association (BSIMA) is a volunteer parent organization whose members are the parents of children registered in a band program within the Brandon School Division.

The Brandon Schools Instrumental Music Association supports instrumental music education for students in the Brandon School Division mainly through the purchase, maintenance, and low-cost provision of instruments to students in their first  two years of band, allowing students the opportunity to participate in the program at a low cost.

“We strongly believe that no child should be excluded from the opportunity to play in band for financial reasons. Assistance is available upon request/application.”

Mission Statement:

The BSIMA supports and encourages instrumental music education for students in the Brandon School Division. It also supports the Brandon School Division’s instrumental music programs by endeavoring to provide educational opportunities and access to instruments of good quality. The BSIMA will also advocate for, and promote public awareness of, the instrumental music programs.
