Instruments: Students will be able to take instruments home during 3rd week of classes provided they have signed and received the care certificate. They are expected to return it at the end of the program. The inner ear youth orchestra and district 189 reserve the right to require students demonstrating poor instrument care or handling to have their instrument remain in the rehearsal class until a student has demonstrated their ability to properly handle the instrument.
Attendance: Please text Ms. Rogers to let her know about absences or tardies as soon as possible. Missing classes could put the student in jeopardy of not performing with the ensemble during concerts and recitals.
