This needs to be looked at very carefully so you are aware of the expectations for participation in instrumental music.

1. Follow all school rules.
2. Be in class on time.
3. Have instruments, music, and pencil at all rehearsals.
4. Get set up quickly and quietly.
5. Wait to warm up together.
6. Don't play between pieces. While the director is working with another section, sit quietly and study your part.
7. Stop playing as soon as the director stops conducting.
8. Come to class well prepared.
9. Respect the property of others.

NEVER use another's instrument/ reeds, open their case, or move it in the storage room
Don't touch another person's property without their permission
Respect the room equipment (don't play with or lean on the music stands or put feet on chairs). Stands are NEVER to be used as desks
NEVER touch the school's drum equipment without permission from the director

10. Percussion equipment must be covered (timpani) and all accessories put in proper place before leaving class. (Percussion players do this while others are putting their instruments away.)

GUM WILL NOT BE TOLERATED IN CLASS. THIS IS VERY BAD FOR THE INSTRUMENTS
