Attendance
Policy
We expect every member to attend every rehearsal unless there
is a school music event or an important family event. In no case do we want to
create a conflict between Zenith and your school band or orchestra. Zenith will
abide by your director's opinion as to what is a required school music event.
All students who participate in a school musical must communicate in advance what
Zenith rehearsals they expect to miss.
Please plan ahead to avoid conflicts such as scheduled
appointments and procrastinated homework. If you have to miss a rehearsal, you must
give advance notice by a Rehearsal Absence Form, a telephone call or an
email. It is insufficient to send word with another member.
In the case of severe weather, we will notify you if a
rehearsal is cancelled. If we have a rehearsal, it is your decision as to the
safety of travel.
If a you miss more than three rehearsals for a concert
for any reason, the Director will evaluate your attendance on an
individual basis. We will give consideration to the reason you were absent and
whether you gave advance notice. Members who have unacceptable attendance will
be asked not to play for that concert.
A
Leave of Absence is available if a member cannot participate for an entire 12
week concert period. The member can rejoin for the next concert if notice is
given at the start of the period. Late
notice of concert absence will be
cause for dismissal from membership.
The success of Zenith depends on you!
