How parents can help
The Lafayette Orchestra handbook is distributed online at the beginning of the school year. This handbook contains much of the information a student and parent will need to have a successful year in the orchestra program.

Most importantly, there is a signature sheet (.pdf) for parents and students to sign indicating that you have read the information contained in the handbook. This signature sheet is the first assignment for students in the class. It is very important that this be signed and submitted online.

Make Up Assignment
As part of your class grade and to have a valuable musical experience, you must be in attendance to every in-school rehearsal. It is crucial that you contribute to the preparation for each performance. When you miss class, you miss out on valuable instruction that can help you improve your understanding of technique and musicianship.  It is the responsibility of each member of the team to make up the practice they miss during rehearsals.
