AFTER SCHOOL REHEARSALS
AFTER SCHOOL PRACTICE
Parents, please remember that rehearsal schedules are fluid and the word for the year is FLEXIBILITY! This information will be communicated to your students in class, and via Google Classroom. They are responsible for letting you know what their schedule is. Please be sure to ask your student what their personal schedule is.
When after school rehearsals begin, students MUST be picked up in the car rider line. The bus lanes outside the band room are off limits for picking up students. We have had some close calls in the past with people coming around the round-about, backing out of the spots in front of the band room, and others trying to use that lane as a pick up spot. Please keep our parents and students safe and do not try to park there.
In the morning, students may drop their instrument off in the band room on the designated area of the shelf with their name. No bags or personal items may be left behind (unlike previous years). Students may not stay in band room and socialize as administration has instructed that they must go directly to 1st block. No items may be left behind at the end of the day.
Be sure to always have an appropriate water bottle as water fountains will be turned off.
Per district policy, if you student has forgotten something at home, nothing may be dropped off at the school this year. Please make sure your have your instrument and mouthpiece when you leave your house!
