Will Band Help My Kid with College Admission?

(Band) teaches hard work, dedication and excellence that can apply to any situation, plus it's just straight up fun environment… hard

work but at the same time, creates a feeling of accomplishment

(Marching band) helped me make so many friends before school even started. (Marching band) has taught me time management and

commitment, as well as given me a great group of friends to spend four years with.

(Band) taught me discipline and leadership; music is my outlet in

my stressful life at Costa.  It provides me with peace, joy and a home within this crazy hectic life.

(Marching band) is like having a second family.
