Windermere High School’s award-winning competitive band program has new leaders.

The school announced Wednesday, May 31, Marc Kolodinsky as its new band director and Kathrine Rudzik as its new assistant band director.

Kolodinsky brings 17 years of band director experience to the Wolverines. He started his career at Deltona High School and also led the programs at Matanzas (Palm Coast) and Oviedo high schools. Most recently, he served as band director at Lyman High School in Longwood. 

Rudzik comes to Windermere from Conway Middle School and also previously taught at Bridgewater Middle.

Parents of band students will have a chance to meet both directors at a Meet and Greet from 6 to 7 p.m. Thursday, June 8, at the school.

Kolodinsky and Rudzik take the reins following Rob and Lynsey Darragh’s departure.
