Policies and Expectations: Melodia and D’Boyz

General Considerations and Attendance Policy

Being part of the Melodia or D’Boyz Team requires a firm commitment on behalf of the student to attend rehearsals regularly. We only meet once or twice per week, so it is critical that we have good attendance and that everyone is on task and prepared for rehearsal. Students with excessive absences get behind and this in turn slows the progress of the group as a whole. If you choose to commit to the program, it is expected that you will commit to attending weekly rehearsals and concerts and that you will commit to learning the music. Students with 2 or more absences per session may be asked to re-evaluate their commitment to the program. If you cannot attend class for any reason, please let us know in advance. If you are sick, please do not come to rehearsal, but contact us so we know why you weren’t there!

Rehearsal Behavior

It is important that rehearsals are productive therefore, we insist on excellent behavior in class. Students are expected to be attentive and ready to work for the entire rehearsal. Parents, students and instructors are all making a commitment to the Melodia or D’Boyz Team and we want everyone to have the best experience possible! We want students to learn their parts to the best of their ability and self- discipline and self-control are essential.

Expectations include:

Arrive on time and ready to sing.

You will be assigned a music binder to hold your music and a pencil. This will stay in the classroom. Please treat it with respect! Mark music only as asked by your director. We often reuse binders and music so please do not draw on them, rip, or otherwise destroy them!

Be prepared for rehearsal. Learn your part to the best of your ability by practicing it regularly.

Save your chewing gum and any other food for another time.

Leave reading materials, cell phones and other electronic devices turned off and in your backpack.

Show respect for the director and accompanist at all times. Mark your music as he/she directs.

Always be attentive at rehearsals. This will ensure the time is used effectively and the rehearsal is productive.

Show respect for other singers. Treat others as you would want to be treated if you were asked to sing a passage in front of everyone.

Be respectful of the rehearsal facilities and other people in the building. Running or disruptive behavior in the hallways and classrooms before or after rehearsal will not be tolerated.

Your director will release you promptly at 8:15 so you have time to get to your first class. Being late for your class is not acceptable.

Performances: Melodia and D’Boyz are Performing Arts programs, students will be expected to attend scheduled concerts. If you are aware of a conflict with a concert date, please let us know as far in advance as possible! A list of our main concerts follows, there may be other performances in the community throughout the year. We will let you know about those events as soon as they are booked. All performances to take place 7:00 PM at the WRHS Performing Arts Theater at the Community Campus.
