Attendance Policy
Members are expected
to attend all
rehearsals, dress
rehearsals, and
concerts. The
General Manager or
an assistant will
take attendance each
week. Please check
in with that
individual to mark
the attendance sheet
and pick up any
announcements or
forms that may be
available.
Absences due to
family, school,
work, or school
commitments should
be reported in
writing in advance.
(See Absence Alert
Section on this
page). Unexpected
absences due to
illness or family
emergency should be
reported by leaving
a voice mail message
at the office.
If a
member misses too
many rehearsals to
be a useful part of
the orchestra (in
the judgment of the
conductor), the
member may be asked
to forego the
upcoming concert. In
cases of continued
absences, the member
may be asked to
leave the orchestra
altogether.
If
members know in
advance that they
cannot play in a
concert, or will
miss more than three
(3) consecutive
rehearsals, they
should request a
leave of absence and
return their music.
Because repertoire
is chosen based upon
the makeup and
strengths of the
ensemble, the
absence of any
single member from a
concert may affect
the whole group. If
members miss a
concert for any
reason other than an
emergency, and the
conductor deems
their part to be
essential to the
success of the
performance, the
cost of hiring a
substitute musician
will be the
responsibility of
the member.
Insofar as parent
participation is
essential to the
activities of their
minor children, it
is expected that
they will make every
effort to ensure
their ability to
comply with this
policy, since the
child, and the
parent, will be
affected by failure
to comply. |
