SBO 2021 Director Travel Survey

We all know that student travel is incredibly important for recruiting and retention in school music programs.
The Monmouth Regional High School marching band performs classic songs for guests at Universal Studios Florida as part of Universal Orlando’s STARS Performance Program
Undoubtably, a return to travel for students is coming at some point, but with fifty states with different rules, and even more rules from district-to-district, what the “normal” because is anyone’s guess.

Please take a moment to fill out this anonymous SBO 2021 Director Travel Survey, for publication in our December issue.

No identifying information is requested, and you can answer only those questions you wish to answer. The survey will close November 26, the day after Thanksgiving.

Thanks in advance for sharing your experiences and thoughts on student travel with your fellow 20,0000+ fellow readers of SBO
