Deb Knisely (Cinnaminson HS) will be our High School Band Coordinator along with Mark Kadetsky (Fernwood Ave. MS) who will be our String Coordinator. The South Jersey Band and Orches-


tra Directors Association offer many opportunities


for instrumental music


teachers to expand their involvement and expertise as music educators. We provide excellent vehicles for profes- sional development including conduct- ing and managing our ensembles. Many teachers have gained wonderful ideas and strategies by observing rehearsals and meeting with colleagues. You can enhance your school music program to include excellent performing opportu- nities for your students and ensembles. We encourage all music teachers to take advantage of the wonderful resources offered by SJBODA this year. Please contact Ben Fong at fongb@gtps.k12. nj.us or 609-457-0590 for additional information.
