Symphony Rehearsal Absence / Tardy Reminder
Are you going to be absent or tardy to our weekly Wednesday Symphony Rehearsal (6:00–8:00 PM)?
If so, you are required to submit the Central Valley Symphony Rehearsal Absence/Tardy Request Form at least 24 hours prior to rehearsal to Mr. Flemmer.
Please remember: submitting this form is a professional courtesy — not permission to miss rehearsal.
When completing the form, you must include:
Your reason for the absence or tardy
Your personal rehearsal plan to stay caught up
Your plan for a substitute, if applicable
We are a large ensemble, and every part matters. Your preparation, communication, and responsibility directly impact the success of the entire team.
Thank you for your professionalism and accountability.
