Campers’ Contract
I have read, and promise to abide by all of the Rules of Conduct. I will accept all decisions made by the audition committee. I will contribute my best self no matter where I stand or sit. I will print my music as soon as I receive it. I will follow the practice schedule and bring my practice part to a teacher or coach. I will come to all rehearsals and performances well-prepared. I know that my experience will only be as amazing as my preparation.
I will show respect for my fellow musicians and the faculty by saving my conversations until the end of rehearsals and classes. I will be kind to my peers, celebrate their successes, and encourage them to do better. If I am sick, I will stay home. Unless I am sick, I will attend all of my classes.
I will bring my instrument, a pencil, and my music to all rehearsals. I will leave the building better than I found it by cleaning the area around me when I leave each room. I will respect others’ property by leaving it alone. I will care for my instrument and belongings by leaving them only in designated spaces.
I will work hard so I can grow into a better musician than I was before I arrived. I will try my best to follow musical instructions from coaches and conductors. I will accept criticism and correction gracefully and quietly, and I will thank the faculty for their help. I will have a FANTASTIC time and make great music with the other wonderful musicians around me
