The MYO attendance policy allows for a maximum of two (2) excused absences per concert cycle. This policy may vary based on the requirements of your ensemble. Any member exceeding this allowance will be notified by email and placed on probation. Members on probation should speak to the MYO Staff and their Music Director regarding their continued participation.
Arriving late for a MYO rehearsal is disruptive. We expect our members to arrive at least fifteen minutes early to check in and warm up prior to the start of an in-person rehearsal. Three (3) late arrivals or early departures per concert cycle will count as one (1) absence.
You are expected to report any absences, late arrivals, or early departures to the MYO Staff and your Music Director by filling out this form. We also take your responsibility in reporting absences into account when considering any requests concerning future placement, financial assistance, and merit scholarship awards.
