From Chris Foster, Cary High Band Director
#BecauseOfBand
There are many amazing aspects of being in the Cary Band. For parents, they want their children to:
-
Develop a habit of persistence that will help them through the tough times in life and keep them on task when it would be easier to quit.
-
Learn to be more responsible and see that mistakes are an opportunity to grow and make necessary corrections on the pathway to success.
-
Master the skills of cooperation so they enjoy working with their counterparts in every realm of personal and professional life.
-
Create a set of personal values that allow a prosperous and fulfilling lifelong journey and find a way to express these understandings.
-
Find a meaningful form of contribution that is significant to self and others.
Band is a training ground for all these attributes, and so much more. Unfortunately, many non-band parents and non-band students are not told of the many benefits band students acquire, such as improved self-image, personal discipline, and the ability to work with others.
From a personal viewpoint, I am absolutely convinced that once non-band people understand the value music has in the development of every student, more people would be a part of the CARY BAND FAMILY. So, spread the word! #BecauseOfBand #CaryBand
