[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]It won’t change unless enough parents get together and meet with the head/board to present ideas for how to overhaul the program, what that could cost, and ways to fundraise. One parent doesn’t represent enough interest (or, frankly, fundraising power) for the school to bother investing in a significant reworking of a band program in multiple divisions the way you are suggesting. [/quote] Even if parents mobilize and have ability to fundraise, the school may not be interested. Most privates know they can't be good at everything and make decisions to support their priorities and mission. A strong band just may not be something you school ever wants, because they already know they can't have strong academics and sports and whatever else they consider themselves best at. I'd still go take to the head of school, but I wouldn't assume this is a matter of enough pressure. [/quote]
