Marching Band Kids

This article is a great reminder of why students that choose to participate in marching band are the best and brightest kids in the school.  The responsibility that we, as band directors, ask these students to take on is incredible and we are so lucky that the students work so hard to keep up.  Next time we get frustrated in a rehearsal, it would be beneficial to think back to this article and remember the thousands of things we are asking our students to do all at one time.

  1. Great article! As a marching band director in SC I understand first hand the intricacies of making everything happen. He didn't even mention the work it takes to setup props, electronics, etc. Gary Gribble is a great band director in GA who travels at times to speak at various clinics in SC. Thanks for sharing!
