Parents and Students, PLEASE look at the schedule / calendar regularly (DAILY) - be informed. We have several activities and at least one performance every month from now until school is out in May, including a performance on the day of graduation. In the classroom we strive to teach responsibility and commitment; missing events due to lack of planning is counter-productive to our goals.
From performances to clinics to hosting events to 2010 marching band camp, you name it and we have it scheduled. We schedule events as they become known to us; your responsibility is to view the calendar regularly and stay informed.
Scheduled after-school rehearsals are MANDATORY, not optional. We publish all known rehearsals and performances well in advance for one reason - so you can plan ahead. We count on each and every band member in performance. And we cannot perform with students who did not rehearse. Likewise, it is counter-productive to rehearse with students who are not performing.
SPECIAL NOTE IF YOU ARE TRAVELING TO NYC: Please look over the March schedule carefully; everyone has after-school rehearsals this month.
Bottom Line: WATCH THE SCHEDULE - BE INFORMED!
