Most students in middle school and high school use student flutes. These are very simple, sterling silver flutes that have decent sound quality and ditch the fancier features (open-hole keys, B flat foot joint, French pointed arms, etc.) to make the Flute much less expensive for those who just want to learn how to play. You can buy these from pretty much any brand, but the most popular student flutes tend to be Yamaha or Gemeinhardt. Other brands include Suzuki, Jupiter, Cecillio, and Armstrong, but I personally have not played these nor seen them myself and cannot give an opinion on them. Bundy student flutes are also good for those who don't plan to play flute professionally.
For a more mature sound, some flute players will purchase professional flutes for recitals, concerts, and solos. These "pro" flutes tend to be pure silver and open-holed; some come with a B flat foot joint (which extends the flute's lowest note from C to B flat), French pointed arms, a gold lip plate and/or a gold coat on the inside of the headjoint (which gives the flute a warmer, richer sound), and other various features. These flutes are for the more serious players and would be recommended to those in upper-level high school bands that play college level literature. Brands that sell quality professional grade flutes include Pearl and Gemeinhardt.
