PDC Practices.... After School Reminder

In case you forgot, our regular PDC times are:  

Mondays:  1:30-2:40 pm
Tuesdays:  2:30-4:40 pm
Wednesday-Fridays: 2:30-3:40 pm

EVERY PRACTICE IS WORTH PARTICIPATION POINTS.  Absences, leaving early, or being tardy result in a lower participation grade.

You should have scheduled and requested those times off from when you auditioned for PDC last school year (the times were the same as above and set).

You may have times/days when you don't have practice (especially when we start auditioning for student choreographed works, after Shakespeare), but these times were supposed to be blocked off.

You cannot miss practices 1 week before any performance, or you will get multiple demerits.  This is in the contract and demerit paper.

You must be at our scheduled practices, especially since Shakespeare and Homecoming is so close.  No more leaving rehearsal unless it is a deathly emergency and I have received notice from your parents.  This lets the whole team down, wastes a practice, and requires us to have more practices.  Please remember your commitment to the team, and this busy stressful time with both Homecoming and Shakespeare that require excellence on our part, which requires actual attendance on the part of each individual.

Love you,
Let's enjoy the journey, which means being positive and finding joy in hard times, and finding purpose through working through those tough and stressful spots!  It's these times that show and define our character.
