The purpose of this online handbook is to acquaint all members and prospective members of the CCHS Instrumental Music Program with the policies and procedures of the organization.  Every effort has been made to be as thorough as possible, knowing, however, that it may well be impossible to cover all situations that may arise.  The director makes decisions that deal with the instrumental music program or students involved in the program.  The director will gather input from administrators, faculty, parents and students as it is deemed necessary to help make these decisions.  Members, prospective members and parents must understand that all decisions concerning membership and placement in the various aspects of the instrumental music program will be made by the director and those decisions are final.  All students and parents should read the handbook thoroughly in order to understand what is expected, and avoid future conflicts or misunderstandings.  Any suggestions for improvement of this handbook can be made to the director and will be considered for future editions.
