"Thank you for assisting us in developing a band program at Onahan School. I have watched this program grow from a few students at its inception to over thirty students at present. The combined concert last evening was great and I am proud of the number of Onahan students who have achieved gold medals at Solo Contest. I thank you and I thank our band instructor."

Peter Hastings, Principal
Onahan School Dist. 1

"Just a quick note to tell you how happy I am, as a school principal, to be working with Miss Kathy Konen. As our Band For Today instructor I have found Kathy to be reliable, responsible and truly interested in our students. She sets a good example for the children and motivates them to want to be successful playing music."

Mrs. Kathryn Hayes-Gaudry, Principal
Mater Christi School

We were very pleased with your program and Stephanie's efforts here at St. James. I've appreciated working with you and will recommend you to my fellow principals.

"This letter of recommendation is written on behalf of the Band For Today program which was used at Benjamin Middle School this year. I have been impressed with the professionalism, efficiency, and overall results of the program. Band For Today has provided a certified teacher for the program. Recruiting, lesson coordination. and collection of fees were all handled by Band For Today. Our schedules were taken into highest consideration when band schedules were created. The real bottom line is that we have more students in band at the end of a year than we ever had before. Band For Today has successfully filled a need at Benjamin with which we struggled in the past. I can highly recommend this program to schools with similar needs."

Greg R. Kane, Principal
Benjamin Middle School (Dist. 25)

"In the years I have worked with Jim I have found him to be very well organized, adaptable to any situation and understanding of a school setting. He has accommodated special situations and worked with us to provide meaningful experiences for our students.

It is my pleasure to work with Jim Jozwiak on a regular basis and look forward to Band For Today continuing to be the instructional band program for the students of St. John of the Cross Parish School."

Maureen Colin, Principal
St. John of the Cross

"The district tried to run our own fee-based band but it wasn’t nearly as successful as the program we have now with Band For Today. We have more students than ever participating and all with a great attitude towards band. Band For Today has taken care of everything with great professionalism including hiring and evaluating teachers and collecting fees. I highly recommend this program to any district considering a fee based band program."

Robert Sabatino, Superintendent
Benjamin School (Dist. 25)

"We have employed Band For Today at our school for a number of years, and are extremely satisfied with the program. Professionalism, quality teaching, and caring people best describe the program at our school. It is very well-organized from the president to the teaching staff. The students learn well, have fun and learn the same values we teach at our school. I would highly recommend this program to any school wanting a quality band program for its students."

Mr. L. Klemm, Principal
St. Paul's School

"Band For Today develops the potential of our young artists for tomorrow's world. We have entrusted our students to this fine program for the last eleven years and know they will receive the finest educational services available. Jim and his staff are great people to work with. Just ask our students!"

Mike Brehm, Principal

I have worked with Band For Today and Mr. Jim Jozwiak for three years. I am pleased with the caliber of teachers sent to our school. They have shown cooperation and dedication to the music program with flexibility to our school program. The children have learned and enjoyed. Mr. Jozwiak keeps in contact with me and has always fulfilled his obligation to our music education."
