Support a Student in Need

At North Lincoln, the Band of Knights is more than a program—it’s a community, a family, and a defining experience for our students. From the marching band and concert ensembles to winter programs and beyond, students gain confidence, discipline, and lifelong connections.

For some students, however, the cost of participation can be a challenge. Support from our community helps ensure every student has the opportunity to be part of this experience. If you are interested in learning more about how you can directly help a student in need, please contact Emilee Meyers, Co-President of the North Lincoln Band Boosters, at president@bandofknights.com
