Student leadership is a very important part of our success
as a band organization, and our current system is the result of a process that
has evolved over many years.
There are three different groups of students that will make
up the “Band Board.” They are 1) the Drum Majors, 2) the Band Staff, and 3) the
Band Officers. Each of the groups are explained below.
The Band Board will meet once each month with the directors
(typically at 9:30 AM on a “Late Start Day) and will be asked for input on a
variety of issues relating to the band activities of North High School. The
Band Board is also in charge of planning the Band Awards Banquet at the end of
the school year, as well as preparing “Tour Books.”
