Attendance is Part of Your Grade

In order to encourage everyone to show up on time, attendance will now count for your winter drumline academic grade. This grade will show up on your report card and count on your GPA.

• 10 points will be given for every rehearsal.
  
• If you are late, you will only receive 5 points.
  
• Competitions will also be a major part of your grade. If you miss a competition, you will fail the class.
  

Please realize, Andy and I aren't trying to be jerks and we don't want anyone to be dissatisfyed with their grade, and we aren't mad at anyone personally. This is just one of the things we are doing to step everything up to the next level. If everyone will show up on time we will get a lot more done every morning, and our show will be that much better for Fresno and all the competitions afterward. Please show dedication, responsibility, and respect for each other by showing up on time and we will all be that much better off.
