In middle school, grade levels are not mixed during the school day. Thus, large ensembles and sectionals must meet after school as necessary prior to concerts.  Rehearsals and concerts will be announced in advance and are an extension of the classroom activity.  Therefore, they are considered mandatory.  Students who must miss a rehearsal are expected to bring a signed note with them to their band class.  Any student who misses a dress rehearsal without notifying Mrs. Purdy in writing prior to the event will not be allowed to perform with the group.  Students who miss concerts, whether or not it is an excused absence, will be required to perform all concert material in front of their peers and the director or may also be given written make up material. 

All rehearsals and concerts are required grades!
