The program thrives following the 1990 flood.

The music program in the Elba City School System is a comprehensive program through which all students K-12 receive instruction in either General or Instrumental Music.  Elementary students in grades K-6 have weekly music classes in a state-of-the-art music building which houses our Yamaha MIE computer-driven keyboard lab (one of only a few statewide).  Elementary students may take band classes beginning in the 5th grade.  The elementary band performs seasonal concerts and for special school programs and ceremonies.  Elementary students also have the opportunity to participate in extracurricular choir.  Junior and Senior High students may participate in the "Marching Tiger" Band, a renowned, award winning band program which performs at all varsity football games and many other regional events.   The concert bands at the high school participate in Alabama Bandmasters Association events and also perform seasonal concerts and for various school and community programs (the band has performed for the governor of Alabama on two separate occasions).
