General+Information

**__GENERAL INFORMATION:__**
6th and 7th grade Orchestra are scheduled on an A/B day. Orchestra is opposite Phys. Ed classes. ALL 6th-7th orchestra students will have Ensemble on Wednesdays during their normal tutorial period. Ensemble is part of the orchestra class and is not optional. Plan to make up work during tutorial on your non-ensemble days of the week.

8th grade Orchestra meets every day.

Instruments and music are required for all classes. No instrument/music means zero participation points for the day.

**__ALL INSTRUMENT CASES MUST HAVE A NAME TAG__.** You should have your name, address, and phone number on your instrument tag. Cases will be checked for tags during the first week of school.

**Instrument Storage**: Instruments need to be taken home for practice. I realize it is sometimes difficult for students to carry instruments every day, so students may leave their instruments at school overnight 1-2 days per week. Cellos and basses may use school instruments.

Violins and violas must use the string lockers in the instrument room. All violins and violas will be assigned a space in the cabinets or on the shelves.
