grade 6 to the middle of grade 8 I played Flute in the school band but U quite because of the new band teacher, she was a real witch, always berating us, and telling us how horrable we were, she was always pissed at me because I could not play for 4 measures without taking a breath, I have asthma and she knew that. now the grade 6 band was a whole different story with this teacher the grade 6's loved her, she would bring them cake and cookies, and tell them how wonderful they were. the grade 7/8 band went from more then 100 memebers to about 48 after, this teacher started, she was such a witch that everyone quite.
