New directors mean a new approach to student leadership in the band. There were a lot of tough decisions that went into creating this new hierarchy and a lot of tough conversations we had with the students. Regardless, I can’t wait to see these fine young people take a servant-leader style of ownership over their role and shape it into the best it can be.

The Upper Leadership team (in blue) is commonly called a “band council” in other programs. These are the students who take the most ownership in the band program with weekly meetings, and discussions, going over and potentially re-writing handbook policies for the coming year(s), and giving the directors a pulse on what is going on in the band. Think of these students as the “senators” of the band”

The Lower Leadership team (in gray) has specific roles that they are in charge of and get support from the Upper Leadership Team if needed. Think of these students as the “congress” of the band who represent their section.
