A. Attendance Students who have more than two unexcused absences will have their course grade lowered by one letter grade. Students who have more than four unexcused absences will be given a failing grade in the class. See me if you have any special circumstances you need to discuss. Two tardies will count as one absence. C. Extra Rehearsals Extra Rehearsals will be announced, when possible, at least a week in advance of the rehearsal.
Mandatory attendance is required.
Absence from an extra rehearsal will be excused only in the event of severe sickness or an emergency . In order for the absence to be excused, I must be contacted prior to the extra rehearsal. You will be told whether the absence will be excused or unexcused. In most cases, whether excused or unexcused, an absence from an extra rehearsal will prohibit you from participating the subsequent concert. A letter grade will be deducted from your final grade for each unexcused absence from an extra rehearsal.
