- CHECK THE BAND CALENDAR! We cannot stress this enough. We want to have full 100% participation in our after school rehearsals and performances. It is extremely important to have every member in attendance at all rehearsal and performances. Your grade can be affected for missing a rehearsal without an appropriate excuse and you will fall behind which could hinder your performance opportunity with the band. Go here to access the calendar. http://www.grissomband.com/band-calendar.html You can learn how to sync the calendar in your MyMusicOffice account.

Rehearsal Schedules
Required after school Band rehearsal schedules can be found HERE for Marching band, Percussion, Color Guard and Concert and Symphonic Bands.
Please note below taken from the Band Handbook pages 6-7 concerning rehearsal/performance attendance:
REHEARSAL ATTENDANCE
Attendance at all scheduled rehearsals (full band and sectionals) and performances is required of all members of the band program. Unexcused absences or frequent tardies will lower your grade and hinder you from performing. It is your responsibility to notify the band director in advance (at least 2 weeks) with a signed note or email from your parent/guardian if you will miss a rehearsal. You must make up all excused rehearsals by staying after school, making up the lost time, and typing up a report on your practice session and giving it to the directors.. Failure to do so within one week will result in your grade being lowered 10 pts. per missed rehearsal during that 9-week period. We request that 2 weeks prior to a performance no rehearsal is to be missed; no excuses except family emergencies. The student will not be allowed to perform with the band and as a result they will receive a failing grade for that 9 weeks. This is why we post calendars on MyMusicOffice and the website in June of each year for the following school year..
Excused absences included the following reasons: (Must be made up within one week)
1. sickness – must have signed note from parent/guardian
2. death in the family
3. pre-arranged conflict -- must be cleared in advance (at least 2 weeks)
4. emergency doctor's appointment.
Unexcused absences include the following reasons: (Cannot be made up)
1. skipping
2. forgetting
3. employment conflict
4. babysitting
