The purpose of the exemption form is COMMUNICATION. It isn’t possible for the band director to know what every student is involved in at any given time. Lack of communication creates unnecessary stress and makes attendance grading difficult. Please be respectful - this form facilitates communication of a conflict with a required band performance or extra rehearsal (outside the school day). All exemption forms should be completed and turned in (with parent/guardian signature) at least one week in advance (except in emergency situations). Students do NOT need an exemption form for a school day absence (unless there is a performance scheduled).
School day absences: Students please send a remind text or email to Mr. Price. Parents call in the absence or send a doctors note if you child is sick to the main office. Absences during the school day that are undocumented or verified will result in a loss of 10 points off their weekly rehearsal and participation grade.
