My students come from a diverse financial background. We live in a very rural part of Vermont, with agriculture and tourism being the main sources of income. As such, our school has a high poverty rate. But, our band students are very dedicated to furthering their knowledge in all subjects! Most of our "Advanced" band is made up of sixth graders, who have been playing for only two years! These students have stepped up to the challenges of a band that would have more experience than they do! They are playing music that seventh, eighth, even ninth graders would normally be playing! And they are playing it well!
