hey there pple. I have set certain ground rules for our section, in order to maintain a piece of mind and it is also for yr benefit. ok. here we go.


1. Sectionals

a)Buddies must make sure you teach yr juniors properly. If you're encountering any problems with them, please make sure u inform me so that i will be able to assist if i can.

b)Sectionals is for you all to practice things parts where u're encountering problems or difficulty with. Therefore i suggest that you make full use of the sectional time. During sectionals, please ensure u also work on musicality as notes and rhythm are supposed to be sorted out at home and not during sectionals.

c)Try not to be distracted during sectionals and start talking about daily life stuff.=D

d)PLEASE make sure u arrange sectionals with yr own parts e.g (1sts,2nds,3rds) on non-band days so that we would be able to play better during main band.


Section rules

a)Instruments are to be kept in yr case everytime u play finish, especially if your instrument would not be requiring attention from you as you would not like to have dents and pay $45 for repairing services.

b) Everybody will be treated equally regardless of playing standards,attitude or whether she is your friend or enemy.Therefore, no teasing,mocking,insults,gossips or calling of names is allowed during practices or sectionals.

c)When unable to come for practice please and i mean PLEASE inform me in advance as it is your responsibility to inform me when u're unable to come for practices OR sectionals.

d)Sectionals is equally important as practices, therefore it is not excusable with an invalid reason(e.g woke up late, going out with friends).

e)Juniors are to show respect to seniors and seniors are also to show respect to juniors at all times.

f)Make sure that everytime i tell you to go home and do something, you try to do it. It is so that we would be able to improve our section sound quality,tone and blending and also playing techniques.


I hope you all will be able to comply with these rules. If you think its unreasonable or anything u can always sms or email me or talk to me over msn and we can discuss about it. yup.But for the time being, try to follow these rules.

Regards,
Melissa
