Some general band things to remember...
What to say to your teacher when you have a scheduled band lesson: "I have a band lesson."
Do not ask "Are we doing anything important today" or "Are we doing anything today?"
Texting is not allowed during rehearsals and lessons. If I see it, I will take it! You may use phones / ipods for audio recording with permission.
If I have a recording of a song we are doing, you can listen to it on the Listening Page.
Socializing is not part of rehearsal. We emphasize teamwork and cooperation.
Instruments and materials are left in the band room at your own risk.
See Mr. C if you would like a combination lock for your band locker.
No gum, food, or drink in the band room. It is bad for your instrument, poor etiquette, and could be a choking hazard.
You are responsible for pulling your weight in the band. If you need extra practice, DO IT!!!
High School Concert Dress is black pants, black socks, black shoes, and a white shirt. Gentlemen will wear ties. Check with your director for middle school band concert dress expectations.
Always have a positive attitude and do your best!
