Though I was able to build relationships with my now former students, have successful band performances etc, it would have been much better to have had a much clearer understanding of the culture of LFLA. Administration could have been much more supportive of the band program that I re-built from stratch. Being terminated on the grounds of merely expressing concerns and suggestions to me was not grounds to oust an exceptional employee! My love for the advancement of music to children is not shattered by my experience at LFLA, however it has motivated me to seek a team that shares the same level of larger thinking and pedagogical aspects of Instrumental Music.
