Holy Cross Academy's Instrumental Music program includes Band and Strings and Beginning Piano skills. The Band and Strings program is for students in grades 4 through 8. Students practice once a week and give two concerts per year.

The Beginning Piano Skills program is for students in grades 3 and 4 only. This class is an introduction to piano, but includes some music theory and music reading skills. Students who take this class usually have an advantage with their music skills over other students when joining the Band and Strings program.
