From the Music Department
With Cabaret approaching, students have been asking to use the music rooms at lunch, break times, free blocks, and after school to practice for Cabaret.
There is not enough equipment, space, and teacher supervision for this to happen for every group every day at every break, so we are asking students who would like to use the rooms and music instruments to please complete this form.
Also, a reminder that due to supervision requirements, the music studio is not open when other music classes are in session and after school time is limited.
Once the form is submitted, we will schedule groups in the spaces when they are available and there is also a teacher available to supervise. We will post those times by the door of the studio after fall break. Reminder, You may not enter the music rooms unless a teacher is present. If you do not complete the form, you will not be able to use the spaces.
Thank you for your help with this, Mr Krebs, Mr Atul, and Ms Karissa
