I understand that I must fill out a Uniform Contract form at the beginning of the season and follow ALL rules of that contract.  (There is a separate form to complete as well) *
I understand that I must order new band shoes for $35 (new members only) *
I understand that all events, times, and up to date changes are located within the 'CALENDARS' tab at gjsdmusic.org *
I understand that I will be expected to attend all events except those listed below. Exceptions include emergencies and a death in the family or at the discretion of the director. *
POINT OF NO RETURN DATES:                                    Please list any mini camp days, band camp days, football game days & competition days that you MUST miss PLUS the reason for missing.  These are for reasons such as vacations already planned, family weddings, or weekend already planned.  For example:  Saturday, October 8th - Cousin's wedding.  If you don't need to miss any of these days please type "None" - If you need to check the full season schedule please visit https://www.gjsdmusic.org/calendars.html         (July 1st-4th) *
I understand that I must inform the Director if I will be late to or will miss rehearsals/games/competitions/ANY marching band event.  I understand that this must be done via REMIND.  IMPORTANT - THIS WILL ALSO INCLUDE ANY MEMBER IN OTHER SPORTS.  Best rule to remember - if you will miss for ANY reason you MUST text the Director.                                                                 This is EXTREMELY IMPORTANT.  Parents - the staff are  fully responsible for your children at all times when we have rehearsals and trips.  Imagine if we didn't know where they were AND YOU didn't know where they were.  Who is then responsible?  This will not be taken lightly and MUST occur at all times! *
I understand that failure to inform the Director of tardiness or missed rehearsals/games/competitions/events will result in some form of discipline - At the discretion of the director and staff. *
I understand that homework, jobs, other sports, studying, etc. are NOT acceptable excuses for missing rehearsals, games, or competitions and will be considered unexcused absences.  You are making the decision to sign-up for an extra-curricular activity.  Therefore, we expect you to fully commit to that activity.  We have everything in place for you to make this decision (dates, schedules, etc.).  If you feel that you cannot PRIORITIZE your time with this extra-curricular activity then it's best to simply not join.  While we value the importance of education, school work and jobs, we also need you to understand that every student in every role of the marching band is important and needed at every rehearsal/game/competition.   *
I understand that unexcused absences from rehearsals/games/competitions/events will result in some form of discipline. - At the discretion of the director and staff *
I understand that tardiness to rehearsal, tardiness to the field, and excused absences can result in physical punishment that will ultimately benefit the member and that this punishment will be given out by the director and/or student leaders. - For example - students may be asked to do lunges or some other sort of physical activity as a punishment for being late but in turn will make their legs stronger for marching. *
I understand that the Director and staff will make the decision on who performs and when based on attendance and learning of the drill/show, (This is for student safety on the field.  If a student misses an entire week of rehearsal and therefore misses important drill changes they could possibly injure someone on the field if they don't know where they are going). *
I understand that the band will dismiss after every rehearsal, game, competition, and trip and that it is mandatory to stay until the end of dismissal.  Students not who leave dismissal without informing staff will result in discipline. - Parents - please communicate emergencies or extreme circumstances where students would need to leave before dismissal. *
I have texted @trojanmb to 81010 in order to sign-up for Remind - MANDATORY for all students.  We must be able to contact the students at all times if needed.  PARENTS - we highly recommend that you join as well to stay informed of rehearsal times, arrival times back home, and important information. *
I understand that there will be $50 in MANDATORY ads/patrons due for our home show and that they will be due by Friday, October 1st, 2022.  I understand that if I am not able to raise the $50 via ads or patrons then I will need to simply pay the $50. - Parents - this money helps the band boosters offset the cost of judges at our home show.  We can then make more money at the show to in turn help the students.  Ads/patron forms will be online by June 5th.  Please start trying ASAP.  If you would like to simply save that would be $3.00/week starting June 1st.  I understand that failure to submit this mandatory $50 will result in a graduation/fundraiser hold as well as an indoor suspension until the money is paid.     *
I understand that I must fully complete ALL competitive AND non-competitive Marching Band commitments in order to join an indoor ensemble *
I understand that if I quit the marching band for ANY reason, that I will be unable to attend ANY field trip held by the Marching Band *
I understand that if I have 'D' or lower in ANY ONE of my classes that I will be required to attend a MANDATORY study hall in the band room after school until 3:30 every Wednesday until the grade becomes a 'C' or higher. *
