You keep high standards for students and keep driving home the need to succeed! Competition is important to your program and students. Musical knowledge and skill is paramount.

You want diversity, equity, and inclusion to be at the core of what you do. Excellent. But the populations in your music program do not match the rest of your school or community. You know what you want to see in your programs, but have no idea where to start.
You might be popular around the school, but you can’t seem to hold onto the students who struggle. You know all the best practices for pedagogy, but somehow there’s always students who get frustrated and quit.
Your students know you are passionate about music, but they aren’t sure you care about them as people.
