In our “Fast Forward: Reflections on School Band” series, Jupiter followed up with a group of high school band members that filmed a commercial with us in their middle school years. After being asked why band was important to them through their secondary school years, these students shared many of the same themes of belonging, teamwork, leadership, responsibility and more. As we continue this series, we follow along to see how band has helped them adjust and succeed in life beyond high school. Our first installment highlights Quinn, who is now studying at University of Alabama at Huntsville.
About Academic Alliance
Involvement in school music provides experiences that only participants can fully understand. Those experiences help forge a common bond through music. If you have been fortunate enough to share such experiences, you are what we call “banded.”
We also use BANDED to describe the COMMUNITY that includes Music Educators, Students of all Ages, Band Parents, Professional Performers, Hobbyist Musicians, School Music Dealers, and Instrument Manufacturers such as ourselves.
At the very foundations of this community, we recognize the importance of the important symbiotic relationship between School Music Programs, School Music Dealers, and the Instrument Manufacturer. In order to foster this connection, we have developed the KHS America Academic Alliance.
We look forward to the evolution of this exciting program, and welcome feedback on how we can further enhance the work that you do in music education.
We are excited to offer your program the opportunity to join the KHS America Academic Alliance today.
