Sectional Attendance.
B. Students who miss three rehearsals are required to make up rehearsals
during sectionals after school. Those who fail to make up rehearsals will
have their grade lowered.
C. Students who have an unexcused absence for the concert or dress
rehearsal will have their grade lowered and will be in danger of not passing
the semester.
Thank you to everyone for your help and cooperation. This concert is
going to be fantastic, and I am very pleased by the hard work and effort we
have all put into this choral season. If there are any questions or
concerns, please contact me at school. Thank you again.
