Alright, so I'm doing this "Career Project" report for school about any career that I would maybe like to aspire to, so i decided to pick high school band director. So here's some questions for band directors out there...
1. What kind of education is required for one to be a band director?
Diploma?:
Degree?:
Training?:
Military?:
Math & Science requirements?:

2. What is the starting salary (approx.)?

3. Salary after five years?

4. What are three advantages of being a band director?

5. What are three disadvantages?

6. What could I do now, being an 11th grade, tuba operator, that would help me in reaching the aforementioned career?

Thank you,
jared
