As mentioned above, do not bother changing your major to political science if you want to someday go to law school. It is absolutely not necessary. My undergraduate degree is in English and psychology, which I think is much more on point for law school success than political science -- I learned how to really figure out people and what they wanted to hear (professors) and how to say it really well. That is key. You'll learn all the substance you need to know in law school, but you have to already know how to write well.
Also, if you're not CERTAIN you want to be a lawyer, don't think about law school yet. I know you mention being a band teacher, but have you ever thought about being a science teacher? At least where I am, they can't get enough science and math teachers. You might be able to advise band on the side or do something with a music-related club, but anyway I don't think band teacher jobs are that plentiful right now since arts/music/drama programs are the ones getting cut when school districts are short on money.
