Students may use private vehicles in some cases but must fill out the appropriate forms and have them signed by a parent. Return the field trip form the first week of School. School Instruments may be borrowed free of charge for the school year or during summers by filling out the appropriate forms. Students may be required to supply their own bows, mallets, mouthpieces or sticks if none can be provided. Care of Instruments directly reflects your performance ability.
Preventive maintenance is the best method for keeping instruments in working order.
If you have a problem ask your Director or a skilled instrument repairperson. Do not attempt to fix your own. School instruments will be repaired by MCPS, but we must pay for parts and students may have to pay in some cases of carelessness or damage to school property. Fire Drills are required by the State of Maryland and should be treated seriously. Exit through the fire door and across parking lot.
