SISO Experience
The STAND-IN TO STAND-OUT program was created by singer-songwriter Guordan Banks to encourage students from diverse backgrounds to better understand and utilize their individual uniqueness. As a product of his personal phrase - “You have to stand IN to stand OUT” - Guordan once understood as a child that singing and songwriting is what makes him unique
