Essay On Band Strength
While I have only been in high school band for one year, I have tried my best to help. Outside of band I am a student council officer and have been a member for 7 years, so I have learned plenty of leadership skills. Within band I have attended every rehearsal and concert, helped out in sectionals, applied my leadership skills every day in band, and attended the Scott lang leadership seminar. I have also helped my older sister and fellow clarinet players with parts.

Disorganization and noty being dedicated enough is what is keeping our band from our full potential and I would like to do my best to improve that by reminding more people of sectionals ahead of time and always putting reminders out at least a day beforehand. I hope the other sections will do the same and make a contribution to the netting of a great band program. This is imperative as our band is growing, more individual and sectional practice is necessary. It’s important to do some enforcing and still gain respect through the leadership role, which is exactly what i would hope to do if given the
