Expectations

1) All students are responsible for their uniforms, instruments (including school owned), music, and folders assigned to them. If any become lost or damaged, the student is responsible for replacing them. 

2) All students are expected to have their instruments EVERY day, and that they are kept in good working order. 

3) Students are expected to respect all other musician’s property, including instruments, reeds, mutes, and music. The policy is you don’t move, touch or use anyone else’s property. 

4) School owned property such as stands, instruments, and music are to be treated appropriately by all students. 

5) Percussion instruments are to be played only by percussionists. 

6) All students are expected to be in class every day! Because the expectation is that students are in class every day, and because the class is based primarily on participation, it is not the teacher’s responsibility to contact parents due to absences or work not being completed as a result of said absences. 

7) Instrument storage room is to store instruments and music only. Students will not assemble their personal instrument(s) in the storage room. Please retrieve instrument cases upon arrival to class and assemble in your assigned seats. Large instruments like tubas, euphoniums, bari saxophones, and tenor saxophones are the exception to this rule.
