Do not chew gum, drink, or eat in the classroom
You are responsible for your music. It should be kept in your folder, neat and unrolled
Always listen closely to directions the first time
Discipline In
keeping with district disciplinary policy, poor student behavior will
result in a verbal warning and student conference for the first
occurrence, a phone call to parents the second, a principal's detention
for the third, and possible removal from the band if the problem cannot
be resolved.
